Write an equation for the translation of y=3/x with asymptotes of x=7 and y=-5

y = (3 / (x-7)) - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation has the asymptotes at x = 0 and y = 0.

We want to translate to the right by 7 units so that the asymptote is at x = 7 and downwards 5 units so that the asymptote is y = - 5.

Now, in the first case, to move it to the right, you must subtract 7 from the independent variable (i. e. x)

And in the second case, to move a function down 5 units, subtract 5 units from the entire function.

Applying the above, the new function would be:

y = (3 / (x-7)) - 5
