Step-by-step explanation:

Find g (8)

Substitute 8 in for x

g (x) = 3x-2

g (8) = 3 (8) - 2

=24-2

=22

Find g (-5)

Substitute - 5 in for x

g (x) = 3x-2

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

= - 15-2

= - 17

Now, subtract

g (8) - g (-5)

22 - - 17

22+17

Step-by-step explanation:

g (x) = 3x-2,

First find g (8)

g (8) = 3 (8) - 2 = 24-2 = 22

The find g (-5) = 3 (-5) - 2 = - 15-2 = -17

The subtract g (-5) from g (8)

g (8) - g (-5) = 22 - - 17 = 22+17=39
