f(x) = 5x − 1 and g(x) = 2x^2 + 1
(f × g)(x) = (5x − 1)(2x^2 + 1)
(f × g)(x) = 10x^3 - 2x^2 + 5x - 1
Substitute x = - 3
(f × g)(-3) = 10(-3)^3 - 2(-3)^2 + 5(-3) - 1
(f × g)(-3) = 10(-27) - 2(9) -15 - 1
(f × g)(-3) =-270 - 18 - 16
(f × g)(-3) = -236
Answer
- 236
Answer: f(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the formula for the rate of change by taking the derivative of 2^x. Let f(x) equal some hypothetical y-value, then take the natural log of both sides.

Implicitly differentiate the left side and take the derivative of the right side

Multiply both sides by 'y' which was defined as 2^x

Plug in x = 2 and x = 3 to see which slope is larger

Answer:
1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the decimal place two spaces left to go from a percentage to a decimal. 125.0% becomes 1.25.
