g(x)=\x^2-20, find g(5)
g(5)=5^2-20 (Plug in 5 for x)
g(5)=25-20 (sub 20 from 25)
g(5)=5
note that g(5) Just means X=5
So g is 5

I don't know what you mean by \
g(x) = x^2-20
Substitute 5 for x
g(5) = 5^2 - 20 = 25 - 20 = 5
If \ means sqrt, then g(5) = sqrt5

are you serious? just plug in 5 for every time you see X. Thats the point for them giving you 5 dummy.

g(x) = x² - 20
g(5) = 25 - 20
g(5) = 5
