Answer:

  • g(-2) = -19
  • g(0) = -5
  • g(3) = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have several evaluations to do, it is often convenient to put the formula into a graphing calculator or spreadsheet.

__

If you must evaluate a polynomial by hand, it is often easier if the expression is written in "Horner form":

  g(x) = (-2x +3)x -5

Then we have ...

  g(-2) = (-2(-2) +3)(-2) -5 = 7(-2) -5 = -19

  g(0) = (-2(0) +3)(0) -5 = -5

  g(3) = (-2(3) +3)(3) -5 = (-3)(3) -5 = -14
