For this case we have the following function:

For each of the domains we will choose a value.
We have then:
For −5 ≤ x ≤ −1
Let's choose the value of x = -3
Evaluating the function we have:
Answer:
g(-3) = 1
For −1 < x ≤ 5:
Let's choose the value of x = 0
Evaluating the function we have:
Answer:
g(0) = 2
1 and three fourths is larger because it would be 1.35 as a decimal and the other would be 1.625
Answer:
The bookkeeper already has a balance of 83.92. She collects 76.75 so that's 83.92+76.75 which equals to 160.67. Then she pays out 38.58 so that's a deduction to what she already has. 160.67-38.58=122.09.
SO the bookkeeper has $122.09 left.
