Answer:
pls edit the question. there seems to be missing information. the function are not there.
in the meantime I hive you as much as possible.
I'll edit when you gave the missing functions.
your table of values could look like this:
x y1 y2
-2
-1
0
0.25
0.5
1
2
3
4
5
2. I did choose some negative integers, some positive and, as the problem requested, 2 values between 0 and 1. this should give some idea of the function when graphed.
3. calculate each scenario by swapping the x in the formula with the value for x from the table.
4. [need the functions for this one, but probably: one has a steeper slope than the other one]
5. [definitely need the graphs for this. I'll graph dem for you then]
6. the common logarithm is to the base 10. that means it answers questions like

this would be 2 for the example, so


these two are the same
if we change the base to, let's say, 8, it gives answers to problems like

this is relatively easy to see 2, so we can write it this way:

Generally speaking, the log asks to wich power some base has to be raised to equal as certain value, like eight to the power of what equals 64.
