Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

G(x) = 5x + 3

Step 2: Evaluate

1. Substitute in x [Function G(x)]:                                                                         G(-1) = 5(-1) + 3
2. Multiply:                                                                                                             G(-1) = -5 + 3
3. Add:                                                                                                                   G(-1) = -2

Answer 2

Answer:

G = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in -1 for x.
