Correct Answer: D

Rationale

Choice D is correct. The value of $g of 0$ is found by substituting 0 for x in the function g. This yields $g of 0 equals, negative 0, plus 8$ , which can be rewritten as $g of 0 equals 8$ .

Choice A is incorrect and may result from misinterpreting the equation as $g of x equals, x plus, negative 8$ instead of $g of x equals, negative x plus, negative 8$ . Choice B is incorrect. This is the value of x, not $g of x$ . Choice C is incorrect and may result from calculation errors.
