**Problem: Linearization of a Function**

Find the linearization \( L(x) \) of the function \( g(x) = \sqrt{x} \cdot f(\sqrt{x}) \) at \( x = 100 \) given the following information.

\[
f(10) = 3 \quad f(100) = -7 \quad f'(10) = -4 \quad f'(100) = -10
\]

**Solution:**

To find the linearization \( L(x) \) at \( x = 100 \), we consider the formula for linearization:

\[ 
L(x) = g(100) + g'(100) \cdot (x - 100)
\]

**Calculations:**

1. **Evaluate \( g(100) \)**:
   \[
   g(100) = \sqrt{100} \cdot f(\sqrt{100}) = 10 \cdot f(10) = 10 \cdot 3 = 30
   \]

2. **Differentiate \( g(x) \) and evaluate \( g'(100) \)**:

   Using the product rule:
   \[
   g(x) = \sqrt{x} \cdot f(\sqrt{x}) \Rightarrow g'(x) = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}} \cdot f(\sqrt{x}) + \sqrt{x} \cdot \frac{f'(\sqrt{x})}{2\sqrt{x}}
   \]

   Simplifying:
   \[
   g'(x) = \frac{f(\sqrt{x})}{2\sqrt{x}} + \frac{\sqrt{x} f'(\sqrt{x})}{2x}
   \]

   Evaluate at \( x = 100 \):
   \[
   g'(100) = \frac{f(10)}{20} + \frac{10 \cdot f'(10)}{200}
   \]
   \[
   = \frac{3}{20} + \frac{10 \cdot (-4)}{200} = \frac{3}{20} - \frac{2}{20} = \frac{1}{20}
   \]

3. **Linearization formula**:
   \[
   L(x) = 30 + \frac{1}{20} \cdot (x - 100)
   \]
