Best Answer

This graph looks very similar to the famous equation of y equal 1 over x; in either case you get a curve which asymtotically approaches infinity at the y axis where x=0, and which asymptotically approaches zero as x approaches infinity. The difference is that if it is 3 over x, all the values will be three times higher than if it is 1 over x. But the shape of the curve is the same.

Because the inverse of a function is what happens when you replace x with y and y with x.

How do you determine if the graph of a function is concave down without looking at the graph?

If you can differentiate the function, then you can tell that the graph is concave down if the second derivative is negative over the range examined. As an example: for f(x) = -x2, f'(x) = -2x and f"(x) = -2 < 0, so the function will be everywhere concave down.
