  2. 3.7: The Reciprocal Function

    We have seen the graphs of the basic reciprocal function and the squared reciprocal function from our study of toolkit functions. Examine these graphs, as shown in Figure 3.7.1 3.7. 1, and notice some of their features. Figure 3.7.1 3.7. 1. Several things are apparent if we examine the graph of f(x) = 1 x f ( x) = 1 x.
