Layman : The number of the largest power

Say $x^{2} +x+3$ , Degree is 2 (X^2)
and if $x^{3} + x^{2} +x+3$ , the Degree is 3.

Answer:

Shifted 5 unit right side then stretched vertically by the factor 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, parent function,

$f(x)=\frac{1}{x}$

Transformed function,

$f(x) = \frac{100}{x-5}$

Since, if a function f(x) gives cf(x), where c is any number,

Then the function was vertically stretched by factor c,

While, the function gives f(x-c),

Then the function was shifted c unit right.

Hence, the graph of $f(x)=\frac{1}{x}$ was shifted 5 unit right side then stretched vertically by the factor 100 to create the graph of $f(x)=\frac{100}{x-5}$
