The function given is:


g\mleft(w\mright)=100w+150

Where

w represents the week

g(w) represents the total money

We want to fing g(5).

This means, put "5" into the function g.

Put "5" in place of "w" in the function g.

Shown below:


\begin{gathered} g(w)=100w+150 \\ g(5)=100(5)+150 \\ g(5)=500+150 \\ g(5)=650 \end{gathered}
