The graphs of y =1/x and y = 3/x – 4 can be compared by saying that c<span>ompared to the graph of y =1/x , the graph of y =3/x – 4 is a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units down. This can be seen clearly when you graph the functions on a x-y coordinate plane.</span>
Vertex is (-2,-3) and it's a minimum.
The roots: this is when y=0, so in yours there are 2 roots. Just look at the x value when y=0 and that is your roots.
Y intercept- this is when x=0, so just look at the y value below x=0 and that is the y intercept. Note the answer will probably be in the form (0,_)
Vertex=do you see a pattern? Well the vertest would be the highest or lowest point of the quadratic equation. Your vertex would be (5,-9) because just look at x=4 and x=6, bit of the y values are -8 and when you look at x=3 and x=7 they are also the same because this is a quadratic equation.
Max or min: yours is a minimum because (5,-9) is the lowest point. Every value left and right of this are higher up the graph, so this would be a minimum.
*something that will help you see this all more clearly is if you graphed this or put it into Desmos to see the vertex etc.
