1. Substitute $$ x = -1 $$ into the function:
   $$
   g(-1) = -|-1 - 5| - 3
   $$

2. Calculate the expression inside the absolute value:
   $$
   -1 - 5 = -6
   $$
   Therefore, 
   $$
   | -6 | = 6
   $$

3. Substitute this value back into the function:
   $$
   g(-1) = -6 - 3
   $$

4. Finally, perform the subtraction:
   $$
   g(-1) = -9
   $$

Thus, the value of $$ g(-1) $$ is $$-9$$.
$$ g(-1) = -9 $$

\( g(x)=-|x-5|-3 \) Evaluate the function to find \( g(-1) \) \( \begin{array}{l}-7 \\ -9 \\ -9\end{array} \)
