1. **State the problem:** We have a function $g$ defined on the set $\{-2, 1, 3, 5\}$ with the rule $g(x) = -2x + 1$. We want to find the values of $g(x)$ for each $x$ in the domain.
2. **Formula used:** The function rule is $g(x) = -2x + 1$. This means for each input $x$, multiply by $-2$ and then add $1$.
3. **Calculate $g(-2)$:**
$$g(-2) = -2(-2) + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5$$
4. **Calculate $g(1)$:**
$$g(1) = -2(1) + 1 = -2 + 1 = -1$$
5. **Calculate $g(3)$:**
$$g(3) = -2(3) + 1 = -6 + 1 = -5$$
6. **Calculate $g(5)$:**
$$g(5) = -2(5) + 1 = -10 + 1 = -9$$
7. **Summary:** The function values are:
- $g(-2) = 5$
- $g(1) = -1$
- $g(3) = -5$
- $g(5) = -9$
This shows how the function maps each input to an output by applying the linear rule with a negative slope and y-intercept at 1.
