If you shift the reciprocal parent function, f(x)= 1/x, down 2 units, what is the equation of the new function?

Step-by-step explanation:

Shifting a function down two units is doing the following operation:

.

In this case, we have that:

So, shifting down 2 units, the equation of the new function is:

the distance from any point on the parabola to the focus is the exact same as the distance from that point to the directrix.

if you could provide answer choices that might allow me to answer the question easier if my above answer isn't an option! (:
