Final answer:

To find the value of g(f(-5)), first determine the value of f(-5) by substituting -5 into the function f(x) = |2x + 9|. Then, substitute the value of f(-5) into the function g(x) to find g(f(-5)).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of g(f(-5)), we first need to determine the value of f(-5). Substitute -5 into the function f(x) = |2x + 9| to find f(-5).

f(-5) = |2(-5) + 9|

= |-10 + 9|

= |-1|

= 1

Now that we know f(-5) = 1, we can substitute this value into the function g(x). However, the function g is not provided, so we need additional information to determine the value of g(f(-5)).
