#g(3) =6#

Just substitute 3 in wherever there's an #x#

#g(3)=root(3)(3^2-1) + 2sqrt(3+1)#
#g(3) = root(3)8 + 2sqrt4#
#g(3) = 2 + 2sqrt4#
#g(3) = 2 + 2xx2#
#g(3) = 2 + 4#
#g(3) =6#

#g(3)=6#

Plug #3# in for #x#

#g(3)=root3(3^2-1)+2sqrt(3+1)#

Simplify

#g(3)=root3(9-1)+2sqrt(4)#
#g(3)=root3(8)+2sqrt(4)#
#g(3)=2+2(2)#
#g(3)=2+4#
#g(3)=6#
