Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

h(x) = -2x + 9

x = -2

x = 0

x = 5

Step 2: Evaluate

x = -2

Substitute in x:                    h(-2) = -2(-2) + 9Multiply:                               h(-2) = 4 + 9Add:                                     h(-2) = 13

x = 0

Substitute in x:                    h(0) = -2(0) + 9Multiply:                               h(0) = 0 + 9Add:                                     h(0) = 9

x = 5

Substitute in x:                    h(5) = -2(5) + 9Multiply:                               h(5) = -10 + 9Add:                                     h(5) = -1
