i don't understand how a graph with 1/x^2 shape when the recipricol of the x-axis is ploted gives a linear mx+c graph.

what other relationships can you derive a graph from a graph?

I didn't understand your question, Could you rephrase it please.

If you want the shape of a [tex]\frac{1}{x^2}[/tex] graph check the attachment. As you can clearly see, the graph is not linear.

check this link for a basic understanding of graphs
