Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If the family of curves is given by y = k/x, what type of curves does it represent?
  • Step 1: Identify the equation given, which is y = k/x.
  • Step 2: Recognize that 'k' is a constant that can take different values.
  • Step 3: Understand that for different values of 'k', the shape of the curve changes but follows the same general form.
  • Step 4: Recall that the equation y = k/x is a standard form of a hyperbola.
  • Step 5: Conclude that as 'k' varies, the curves represent different hyperbolas.
