Let's go through the problems shown in the image one by one. 

### Problem 20: 
You are asked to find \( f'(5) \) if \( f(x) = \frac{h(x)}{2g(x)} \). To solve this, we will use the **quotient rule** for differentiation. The quotient rule states:

\[
\frac{d}{dx} \left( \frac{u(x)}{v(x)} \right) = \frac{u'(x)v(x) - u(x)v'(x)}{v(x)^2}
\]

Here:
- \( u(x) = h(x) \)
- \( v(x) = 2g(x) \)

Applying the quotient rule:

\[
f'(x) = \frac{h'(x) \cdot 2g(x) - h(x) \cdot 2g'(x)}{(2g(x))^2}
\]

Now substitute the values given in the table for \( x = 5 \):
- \( h(5) = 3 \)
- \( h'(5) = -\frac{1}{2} \)
- \( g(5) = 2 \)
- \( g'(5) = 8 \)

Substitute these into the formula:

\[
f'(5) = \frac{-\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot 2 - 3 \cdot 2 \cdot 8}{(2 \cdot 2)^2}
\]

Simplify:

\[
f'(5) = \frac{-2 - 48}{16} = \frac{-50}{16} = -\frac{25}{8}
\]

Thus, the derivative \( f'(5) = -\frac{25}{8} \).
