Suppose the function g is defined as follows:
g(x)=-(1/2)x-3
Write down the D:g and solve the equation 4^(gx)=8Thank you
g(x)=-(1/2)x-3
4^(gx)=8
D:g (-∞,∞) because the function is a line,
4^((-1/2)x-3)=8
log4^((-1/2)x-3)=log8
(-1/2x)-3=(log8)/(log4)
(-1/2x)-3=1.5
(-1/2x)=4.5 add 3 to both sides
x=-9
Have I got it right?
