f(x+y)=f(xy)

this implys the fn is of the form
f(x)=a^x

given f(8)=9

=> 9=a^8

a=3/8 log(3)

=> f(9) = [ 3/8 log(3) ]^9

The answer given by b_srikalyan009 is wrong.


If f(x+y)=f(xy), how is f(x) =a^x
I think u read the question as f(x+y)=f(x)f(y)


You can find the answer here.

f(9) = f(8+1)
     = f(8*1)
     =f(8)
     =9

Actually the question is like this

f(x+y)=f(xy) for all x>=4,y>=4

f(8)=9
find f(9)
