Formula used:
Some functions are defined by different equations for various parts for their domains.
Those functions are called piecewise-defined functions.
To solve the piecewise-defined function for an input, we will determine that which part of the domain it belongs to and use the appropriate formula for that part of the domain.
Calculation:
Consider the provided function,
g(x)={x5  if x53x  if x>5
The function provided is defined in multiple equations.
Therefore, to determine g(0) identify in which equation 0 will lie.
It lies in the interval x5. Therefore, to determine the value of g(0), g(x)=x5 will be used.
Substitute x=0 into the equation g(x)=x5.
g(x)=x5
g(0)=05=5
Hence, the value of g(0) is —5.
