Answer

$\text{(a) }x=5$ $\text{(b) }x=-15$ $\text{(c) }x=15$ $\text{(d) }(-\infty,5)$ $\text{(e) }[-15,\infty)$ $\text{(f) }(-15,15)$

Work Step by Step

Use the given figure, we have: (a) For $g(x)=20$, we can identify $x=5$ (b) For $g(x)=60$, we can identify $x=-15$ (c) For $g(x)=0$, we can identify $x=15$ (d) For $g(x)\gt20$, we have $x\lt 5$ or $(-\infty,5)$ (e) For $g(x)\le60$, we have $x\ge -15$ or $[-15,\infty)$ (f) For $0\lt g(x)\lt60$, we have $-15\lt x\lt 15$ or $(-15,15)$
