1/(2x-6) = 1/2 * 1/(x-3)
so, shifted right 3 and vertically shrunk by 2.
Hmmm. Not a choice. So, equivalently,
1/(2x-6) = 1/(2(x-3))
shifted by 3, horizontally shrunk by 2.

How is the the graph of y=1/2x-6
obtained from the graph of y=1/x
?
A) Vertically stretched by a factor of 2 and shifted right by 3 units.
B) Vertically stretched by a factor of 3 and shifted right by 2 units.
C) Horizontally stretched by a factor of 2 and shifted left by 3 units. <my answer
D) Horizontally compressed by a factor of 2 and shifted right by 3 units.
