**Disclaimer** Hi there! I assumed the [ 5g ] to be [ 5q ] because it might be errors in typing or images. The following answer will be according to this understanding. Please let me know if it is incorrect and I will modify my answer.

Answer:
\Large\boxed{10}

Explanation:

Given expression


(p-q)(p^2-3pq+5q)

Given information


p=-3\\q=-1

Substitute values into the given expression


[(-3)-(-1)][(-3)^2-3(-3)(-1)+5(-1)]

Simplify by multiplication


[-3+1][9-3(3)-5]


[-3+1][9-9-5]

Simplify values in the bracket


[-2][0-5]


[-2][-5]
