question 47

Multiple Choice

Use the change-of-base formula to rewrite the logarithm as a ratio of logarithms.Then use a graphing utility to graph the ratio.
?
F(x) = log_11.7 x
?

• A) \[f ( x ) = \frac { \log x } { \log 11.7 } = \frac { \ln x } { \ln 11.7 }\]
• B) \[f ( x ) = \frac { \log 11.7 } { \log x } = \frac { \ln 11.7 } { \ln x }\]
• C)f(x)= log x? + log 11.7 = ln x? + ln 11.7
• D) \[f ( x ) = \log \frac { 11.7 } { x } = \ln \frac { 11.7 } { x }\]
• E) \[f ( x ) = \log \frac { x } { 11.7 } = \ln \frac { x } { 11.7 }\] ?
