Hello, callmelexis!

\(\displaystyle \text{Describe how the function has been transformed from: }\,y \,=\,\frac{1}{x}\)

. . . \(\displaystyle y \:=\:\frac{-6x-22}{x+4}\)

\(\displaystyle \text{Dividing, we have: }\:y \;=\;\frac{2}{x+4} - 6\)


\(\displaystyle \text{We know the graph of }\,y_1 \:=\:\frac{1}{x}\)

\(\displaystyle \text{The graph of }\:y_2 \:=\:\frac{1}{x+4}\:\text{ is }y_1\text{ moved 4 units to the left.}\)

\(\displaystyle \text{The graph of }\:y_3 \:=\:\frac{2}{x+4}\:\text{ is }y_2\text{ dilated by a factor of 2.}\)

\(\displaystyle \text{The graph of }\:y \:=\:\frac{2}{x+4}-6\:\text{ is }y_3\text{ lowered 6 units.}\)
