ANSWER: x = -0.082
EXPLANATION:
1. Apply logarithm to both sides of the
equation. If one of the terms has base 10,
use common logarithm, otherwise, use
natural logarithm
2. Use the different properties of logarithms
to solve for the variable.

-92 _ 7 = 49
7.17-92 = 56
17-92 = 8

-0.082
2 of 3
Add both sides by 7
Divide both sides by 7
Convert to logarithm
Divide both sides by - 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 5x + 20
Start at (0, 20).
Then plot a point at (1, 25).
The line should be going through points (2, 30), (3, 35), (4, 40), (5, 45), etc.
For every time the x number goes up, the y number goes up 5 times for the 5%.

Answer: 74</h3>
==================================================
Work Shown:
h(x) = 7x-5
h(2) = 7(2)-5
h(2) = 14-5
h(2) = 9
f(h(2)) = f(9)
f(x) = x^2-7
f(9) = 9^2-7
f(9) = 81-7
f(9) = 74
f(h(2)) = 74
-----------
Here's a slightly alternative approach:
f(x) = x^2 - 7
f(h(x)) = ( h(x) )^2 - 7
f(h(x)) = ( 7x-5 )^2 - 7
f(h(2)) = ( 7*2-5 )^2 - 7
f(h(2)) = ( 14-5 )^2 - 7
f(h(2)) = ( 9 )^2 - 7
f(h(2)) = 81 - 7
f(h(2)) = 74
