  1. A curve with equation \(\frac{{{\left( x-2 \right)}^{2}}}{4}+{{y}^{2}}=1\) undergoes, in succession, the following transformations:
    A: \( \qquad \) A stretch with scale factor \(\frac{1}{2}\) parallel to the \(y\)-axis.
    B: \( \qquad \) A translation of \(5\) units in the positive \(x\)-direction.
    C: \( \qquad \) A reflection about \(y\)-axis.
    Find the equation of the resulting curve.[3]
  2. The diagram shows a sketch of the curve \(y=\frac{1}{\mathrm{f}\left( x \right)}\). The curve cuts the axes at \(\left( 2,0 \right)\) and \(\left( 0,3 \right)\). It has a stationary point at \(\left( -1,4 \right)\) and equations of asymptotes \(x=3\) and \(y=\frac{1}{2}\).

    1. \(y=\mathrm{f}\left( x \right)\).[3]
    2. \(y=-\frac{1}{\mathrm{f}\left( x \right)}+4\).[3]
