Trying to input values into function with previously symbolically defined variables and plot the function, but getting error

I wanted MATLAB to simplify T_h symbolically, and then wanted to graph T_h using the specific values of Ra, Rb, and Ca that you see below. For some reason, I keep getting the error "Conversion to double from sym is not possible." Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

T_h = sqrt(((-Rah*Rbh.*(Cah.*w).^2)/((Rah.*w.*Cah).^2 +1)).^2 + ((-Rbh.*w.*Cah)/((Rah.*w.*Cah).^2+1)).^2);
pretty(T_h)
T_hs = simplify(T_h);
pretty(T_hs)

Rah_v = 10;
Rbh_v = 10;
Cah_v = 0.05;
T_hs_v = subs(T_hs,[Rah,Rbh,Cah],[Rah_v,Rbh_v,Cah_v])

semilogx(w,T_hs_v)
hold on

David, try

%Plotting High-Pass Gain vs Angular Frequency
ww = logspace(1,5,100);
Rah_v = 10;
Rbh_v = 10;
Cah_v = 0.05;
T_hs_v = subs(T_hs,[Rah,Rbh,Cah],[Rah_v,Rbh_v,Cah_v]);
T_hs_v = subs(T_hs_v,'w',ww);
figure

semilogx(ww,T_hs_v)

I recommend defining a new variable ww that contains numeric values versus the symbolic variable w. Also, if you're planning to use a log plot it makes sense to assign values accordingly, e.g., using logspace.
