Grade Year 9
A

Fluency & Practice

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
For the function y=\frac{3}{x-2}, identify the vertical and horizontal asymptotes.
[2 marks]
2.
Calculate the limit of y=\frac{4}{x+1} as x approaches -1 from the right.
[2 marks]
3.
Plot the graph of y=\frac{2}{x} on the grid. Identify the asymptotes.
[2 marks]
B

Problem Solving & Reasoning

Answer all questions. Show detailed working.
1.
Given y=\frac{5}{x-3}, find the points where the graph intersects the x-axis and y-axis.
[3 marks]
2.
Explain how the asymptotes of y=\frac{1}{x+4} change if the function is shifted 3 units to the right and 2 units up.
[3 marks]
C

Real-world Applications

Answer all questions in complete sentences where applicable.
1.
A car's speed (in km/h) is modeled by the function v=d/(t-2), where d is the distance traveled in km and t is time in hours. What does the vertical asymptote at t=2 represent in this context?
[3 marks]
D

Challenge & Extension

Answer all questions. Show your reasoning clearly.
1.
Construct the graph of y=\frac{4}{x-1} + 2. Identify the asymptotes and describe how the graph is shifted from y=\frac{4}{x}.
[3 marks]
2.
A reciprocal function has asymptotes at x=\pm 3. Write a possible equation for this function.
[2 marks]
E

Mixed Review & Error Analysis

Answer all questions, including identifying common mistakes.
1.
A student claims that the asymptotes of y=\frac{2}{x-5} are x=5 and y=2. Identify and correct the mistake in this statement.
[2 marks]
2.
Describe a common mistake students make when sketching reciprocal functions and how to avoid it.
[2 marks]
