Final answer:

To find g(-5), substitute -5 for x in the expression for g(x) and simplify the resulting expression. The value of g(-5) is -27.


Step-by-step explanation:

To find g(-5), we substitute -5 for x in the expression for g(x).

So, by substituting -5 for x in our expression for g(x), we get:

  1. g(-5) = -3(4-(-5))
  2. g(-5) = -3(4+5)
  3. g(-5) = -3(9)
  4. g(-5) = -27

Therefore, g(-5) = -27.
