Graph Using a Table of Values f(x)=1/(x-2)

$f (x) = \frac{1}{x - 2}$

Substitute $- 2$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = \frac{1}{(- 2) - 2}$

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{1}{- 2 - 2}$

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{1}{(- 2) - 2}$

Simplify $\frac{1}{(- 2) - 2}$ .

Subtract $2$ from $- 2$ .

$y = \frac{1}{- 4}$

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{1}{4}$

Substitute $- 1$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = \frac{1}{(- 1) - 2}$

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{1}{- 1 - 2}$

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{1}{(- 1) - 2}$

Simplify $\frac{1}{(- 1) - 2}$ .

Subtract $2$ from $- 1$ .

$y = \frac{1}{- 3}$

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{1}{3}$

Substitute $0$ for $x$ and find the result for $y$ .

$y = \frac{1}{(0) - 2}$

Solve the equation for $y$ .

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{1}{0 - 2}$

Remove parentheses.

$y = \frac{1}{(0) - 2}$

Simplify $\frac{1}{(0) - 2}$ .

Subtract $2$ from $0$ .

$y = \frac{1}{- 2}$

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{1}{2}$
