Question:

Recall that the general quadratic equation is Ax2 + Bxy + Cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0.
Let A = 0, B = 4, C = 0, D = 0, E = 0, and F = - 1.
a. Graph this equation. What type of conic section is formed?
b. What is the relationship between the inverse variation function, y = 1/x, and the conic sections?
c. Convert the rational function to y = 1/x - 2 + 3 general quadratic form. What are the values of A, B, C, D, E, and F in the general quadratic equation?
