我在环境中的文本右侧绘制了y = 1/x
的图形。我将的图形部分绘制在负实数集上,将 的图形部分绘制在正实数集上。不过,绘制的图形不是关于原点对称的。tikzpicture

$f(x) = 1/x$ is a decreasing function over the interval $(-\infty, \, 0)$ and over the interval $(0, \, \infty)$, but $f$ is not a decreasing function. For every $0 < a < b$, since the product of positive numbers is a positive number, and since the reciprocal of a positive number is a positive number,
\begin{equation*}
f(b) = \frac{1}{b} = \left( \frac{1}{ab} \right) a < \left( \frac{1}{ab} \right) b = \frac{1}{a} = f(a) .
\end{equation*}
So, the restriction of $f$ to the set of positive real numbers is a decreasing function. Likewise, for every $m < n < 0$, since the product of negative numbers is a positive number,
\begin{equation*}
f(n) = \frac{1}{n} = \left( \frac{1}{mn} \right) m < \left( \frac{1}{mn} \right) n = \frac{1}{m} = f(m) .
\end{equation*}
So, the restriction of $f$ to the set of negative real numbers is a decreasing function. Though, $f$ is not a decreasing function. If $m < 0 < a$, since the reciprocal of a negative number is a negative number,
\begin{equation*}
f(m) = \frac{1}{m} < 0 < \frac{1}{a} = f(a) .
