1. Graph the function y = 2/x. Draw a chart to show at least four ordered pairs that are on the graph.

Y = 2/x

x must not have the value of 0 because x is used as a denominator.

A denominator must not have a value of 0 because the overall value of the fraction is undefined.

x may be any positive or negative integer.

x = 1

y = 2/1 = 2 ⇒ (1,2)

x = 2

y = 2/2 = 1 ⇒ (2,1)

x = 3

y = 2/3 = 0.67 ⇒ (3, 2/3)

x = - 1

y = 2/-1 = - 2 ⇒ (-1,-2)

x = - 2

y = 2/-2 = - 1 ⇒ (-2, - 1)

x = - 3

y = 2/-3 or - 0.67 ⇒ (-3, - 2/3)
