More on Direct and Inverse Variations

We continued the discussion about indirect variations and saw how the curves approach, but never cross a certain point on the coordinate grid. The location of these "asymptotes" can be predicted by looking at the equation of the function. We used palms to explore this idea, and determined that adding b value to the basic form of the indirect variation's formula would shift the graph a predictable amount left or right.
