How do you graph something like g(-2) on a graphing calculator? the problem shows a curve that with the bottom at (0,-6) and two other points at (-5,0)(5,0). When I put -2 on the calculator it just gives a straight line.

Question

The answer is revealed to be g(-2) = -5.

Answer 1

To graph this on a graphing calculator, you would need to enter the equation for the curve into the calculator. Then, you would need to plot the points (0,-6), (-5,0), and (5,0). Finally, you would need to enter the point (-2,-5) to graph the point g(-2).
