This is an unanswerable question there are no graphs for us to look at.
But if the points are scattered randomly and you can’t make up if it’s going left to right or right to left then it’s no correlation.
Answer: The equation is y = 0.25/(x - 4) + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a function y = f(x)
A compression means that we multiply the function by a factor smaller than 1.
Then the vertical compression by a factor of 0.25 is:
y = 0.25*f(x)
a translation by A units to the right, means that we need to valuate the function in x - A.
So now we have:
y = 0.25*f(x - 4)
A translation in the y-axis means that we need to add a constant to the equation, then if we tralate it by 3 units up, we have:
y = 0.25*f(x - A) + 3
Then, if f(x) = 1/x
Our new equation is:
y = 0.25/(x - 4) + 3
D) square the number and add 2
