  1. Linear functions
  2. Hyperbolas
  3. Parabolas
  4. Circles

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The family of curves defined by the equation y = k/x represents:
  • Step 1: Understand the equation y = k/x. Here, 'k' is a constant number.
  • Step 2: Recognize that as 'k' changes, the shape of the graph changes, but the general form remains the same.
  • Step 3: Identify that the graph of y = k/x is not a straight line; it curves.
  • Step 4: Learn that these curves are called hyperbolas, which are a type of conic section.
  • Step 5: Conclude that since 'k' can be any number, the equation y = k/x represents a family of hyperbolas.
