real analysis - Proving continuity of a function using epsilon and delta

I've just got a real quick question about proving the continuity of a function using ϵ and δ definition of continuity. The question is this:



Let f:XR be continuous where X is some subset of R. Prove that the function 1/f:x1/f(x) is continuous at p in X, provided that f(p)0.



The definition states that "A function f(x) is continuous at p iff for every ϵ>0 there exists some δ>0 such that
|xp|<δ and |f(x)f(p)|<ϵ



After that, I am super stuck...any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
