1. **Problem Statement:**
We have three functions defined as:
$$f(x) = 2x - 1, \quad g(x) = 3x + 2, \quad h(x) = 5^x.$$
We need to find:
(i) $f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$
(ii) $h(0)$
(iii) $g(-3)$
2. **Step (i): Find $f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$**
- Substitute $x = \frac{1}{2}$ into $f(x)$:
$$f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = 2 \times \frac{1}{2} - 1$$
- Simplify:
$$= 1 - 1 = 0$$
3. **Step (ii): Find $h(0)$**
- Substitute $x = 0$ into $h(x)$:
$$h(0) = 5^0$$
- Recall any nonzero number to the power 0 is 1:
$$= 1$$
4. **Step (iii): Find $g(-3)$**
- Substitute $x = -3$ into $g(x)$:
$$g(-3) = 3 \times (-3) + 2$$
- Simplify:
$$= -9 + 2 = -7$$
5. **Step (c)(i): Find $g'(x)$**
- $g(x) = 3x + 2$ is a linear function.
- The derivative of $g(x)$ with respect to $x$ is the coefficient of $x$:
$$g'(x) = 3$$
6. **Step (c)(ii): Find $x$ when $g'(x) = 4$**
- Since $g'(x) = 3$ for all $x$, it never equals 4.
- Therefore, there is no value of $x$ such that $g'(x) = 4$.
**Final answers:**
(i) $f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = 0$
(ii) $h(0) = 1$
(iii) $g(-3) = -7$
(c)(i) $g'(x) = 3$
(c)(ii) No solution since $g'(x)$ is constant 3 and never equals 4.
