For the function F(x) = 1/x, whose graph is shown below, what is the relative value of F(x) when the value of x is close to zero
? A - Either a very large positive or very large negative number
B.A very small positive number
C. Only a very large positive number
D.Only a very large negative number
E.Either a very small positive or very small negative number
Well think about it. If you divide by something less than 1, your number gets bigger.
Same thing when it's negative, except now the answer is negative. So, if x gets really close to 0, it will be very big, or a big negative number. Remember, "getting close to 0" could mean from the negative side just as well from the positive.
It is a relation because each person will most likely have a different name and you can have plenty of the same outputs just as long as the input doesn't repeat at all.
