Answer:

  • -32

Explanation:

At x = -2, the h is calculated using the second piece::

  • h(-2) = (-2 + 3)(-2 - 2) = -4

At x = 0, the g is calculated using the first piece:

  • g(0) = (0 + 1)² - 5 = 1 - 5 = -4

The value of the given expression is:

  • 5h(-2) + 3g(0) =
  • 5(-4) + 3(-4) =
  • -32
