g(x)=3x-5_g(x+1)
Evaluate g(x+1) by replacing x with x+1 in the function.
g(x+1)=3(x+1)-5
Simplify the evaluated function.
g(x+1)=3x-2
Compose the result function for g by replacing the function designators with the actual functions.
(3x-2)
Remove the parentheses around the expression 3x-2.
3x-2 is your answer
