Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You simplify by subtracting the numbers in the front of the variables. Granted, it would look like there is no number in front of the second y, however, it is implied that there is a 1 in front of it. Subtract the numericals:

4y - 1y = 3y

3y is your answer.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

$\boxed{ \ f(x) = 7 + 4x \ }$
$\boxed{ \ g(x) = \frac{1}{2x} \ }$

<u>Question:</u>

What is the value of $\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5)? \ }$

<u>The Process:</u>

The form of $\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(x) \ }$ means that f(x) is divided by g(x).

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(x) \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} \ }}$

Let us solve the problem.

$\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(x) = \frac{7 + 4x}{\frac{1}{2x}} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(x) = (7 + 4x) \times \frac{2x}{1} \ }$

Thus, we get $\boxed{{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(x) = 14x + 8x^2 \ }}$

And now, we can calculate the value of $\bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5)$ .

$\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5) = 14(5) + 8(5)^2 \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5) = 70 + 200 \ }$

Thus, the value is 270.

Alternative thinking

$\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5) = \frac{7 + 4(5)}{\frac{1}{2(5)}} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5) = (7 + 20) \times 10} \ }$

$\boxed{\boxed{ \ \bigg( \frac{f}{g} \bigg)(5) = 270 \ }}$
