$g(50) = 40$

To evaluate the function when $t=50$ , all you have to do is calculate the value of $g(t)$ when the variable $t$ is equal to $50$ .

Your function can have different values depending on what value of $t$ is being used.

In your case, $g(50)$ will be

$g(50) = 4/5 * 50$

You can simplify this to write

$g(50) = 4/cancel(5) * cancel(50)^color(blue)(10) = 4 * 10 = color(green)(40)$
