Question
# Evaluate: \( f(g(-5)) \)

## Graphs

### Left Graph: \( y = f(x) \)

- This graph displays a parabola, which opens downwards.
- The vertex of the parabola is at (2, 8).
- The x-intercepts appear around (-1, 0) and (5, 0).
- The parabola is symmetrical around the line \( x = 2 \).

### Right Graph: \( y = g(x) \)

- This graph displays a V-shaped graph, characteristic of an absolute value function.
- The vertex is at the origin (0, 0).
- The graph has linear sections extending from the vertex with slopes of 1 and -1, creating symmetry along the y-axis.

## Problem

Evaluate \( f(g(-5)) \).

## Solution Steps:

1. Identify \( g(-5) \) from the graph. 
   - For \( x = -5 \), find the corresponding \( y \)-value.
   - From the graph of \( g(x) \), \( g(-5) = 5 \).

2. Substitute \( g(-5) \) into \( f \): \( f(5) \).
   - For \( x = 5 \) in the graph of \( f(x) \), find the corresponding \( y \)-value.
   - From the graph of \( f(x) \), \( f(5) = 0 \).

## Final Answer
- \( f(g(-5)) = 0 \)

Expert Solution
Step 1

We have to calculate f(g(-5)) using the graph of f(x) and g(x).

To do so, we need to calculate g(-5) from the graph of g(x).
