It can't they have no common factor
Your answer is gram hope this helps that is what unit to use :)
The power symbols are missing.
I can infere that the product intended to simplify is (7^8) * (7^-4)., because that permits you to use the rule of the product of powers with the same base.
That rule is that the product of two powers with the same base is the base raised to the sum of the powers is:
(A^m) * (A^n) = A^ (m+n)
=>(7^8) * (7^-4) = 7^ [8 + (- 4) ] = 7^ [8 - 4] = 7^4, which is the option 3 if the powers are placed correctly.
May be there is an operator missing in the first function, h(x). I will solve this in two ways, 1) as if the h(x) = 5x and 2) as if h(x) = 5 + x
1) If h(x) = 5x and k(x) = 1/x
Then (k o h) (x) = k ( h(x) ) = k(5x) = 1/(5x)
2) If h(x) = 5 + x and k (x) = 1/x
Then (k o h)(x) =k ( h(x) ) = k (5+x) = 1 / [5 + x]
