Question 147718: Can you help me with this please?
What is the difference between #1 and #2 below?
#1 --> Log(A * B)
#2 --> Log(A) * Log(B)
also...
compare:
#1 - Log2(2 * 8)
vs.
#2 - Log2(2)*Log2(8)
Are the values different? Why?
Can you show me another example?
Thank you

Question 150386: Oh dear God please help me!!! We are studying Graphs of Exponential and Logarithmic Functions and I am so lost I'm about to send out the hound dogs, but seriously if someone could please help just get me started I would greatly appreciate it.
I am supposed to Plot the graphs of the following functions:I don't understand how
1. f(x) = 7x this x variable is actually an exponent so it is 7 to the x power
2. f(x) = 4x - 3 the x-3 here is also an exponent so it reads 4 to the x-3 power
3. f(x) = (1/5)x this is actually 1/5 to the x power again the x is an exponent
4. f(x) = log3x
Thank you guys for always helping me out. I can't wait till I get this degree so I can help yall out with some $$$.

Question 150404: Hi
I'm confused with his question. However, my answer is below.
True or false: The function f(x)=3^x grows three times faster than the function g(x)=x. Explain.
MY answer is true because F(x)=3^x is exponential and grows faster because what ever the x (exponent) is, it multiplies that 3, that many times over. And the g(x)=x is one number muliplied with another number. Is this correct or am I thinking of it the wrong way? Please help, I'm the only one who has this different answer and I don't understand why they all have false.
