G(-2) means "evaluate the equation at -2"; it's asking you to swap out the "x" in the equation and sub in -2.

g(x) = x² + 3x - 2 ... plug in -2
g(-2) = (-2)² + 3(-2) - 2 ... simplify
g(-2) = 4 + (-6) - 2 ... add/subtract
g(-2) = -4

What is z equal to ? Please help

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle (half the rhombus in this case) is 180. Because of the properties of a rhombus, z and x will be equal to each other. Therefore, $124 + z + z = 180$ .
$124 + z + z = 180$
$124 + 2z = 180$
$2z = 56$
$z = 28$
Thus, z is equal to 28.
