Because it is a fraction ( division) rewrite as:
log (5x) - log (4y)
Rewrite log 5x as log 5 + log x
Rewrite log 4y as log 4 + log y
Now you have log 5 + log x - log 4 + log y
Apply distributive property:
log 5 + log x - log 4 - log y
The answer is B.
Two rectangles should be shaded
F(x)= 2/(x+1) and g(x)= -x2-12 => f(-7)= ? , g(2.5)= ?, g(f(- 0.5))= ?
In the expression of the function f(x) we will replace instead of x the number in bracket (-7) => f(-7) = 2/(-7+1)= 2/-6 = - 1/3
In the expression of the function g(x) we will replace instead of x number in bracket (2.5) => g(2.5) = - (2.5)squared -12= - 6.25 -12= - 18.25
Expression f(g(x)) or g(f(x)) is multiplication (composition) of the reflecting of functions f and g. We will do this in the following way => g(f(x))= g(2/(x+1))= -(2/(x+1))2 - 12= -(4/(x+1)2) -12= -4-12(x+1)2/(x+1)2=> we will replace instead of x the number in bracket (-0.5) or (-1/2) => g(f(-1/2) = -4-12((-1/2)+1)2/ ((-1/2+ 1)2= -4-12(1/2)2/(1/2)2=-4-12*(1/4)/(1/4)= (-4-3)/(1/4)=-28
Eaisier way => f(-1/2)=2/((-1/2)+1)=2/(1/2)= 4 g(4) -(4)2-12 = -16-12= -28
Answer:
the slope for y-5=-4(x+1) is: -4
