SOLUTION: a function P is defined as followed: p(x)= x^5+x^4-36x-36 for x>0 -x^5+x^4+36x-36 for x<0 find p(-1)

Question 342519: a function P is defined as followed:
p(x)= x^5+x^4-36x-36 for x>0
-x^5+x^4+36x-36 for x<0
find p(-1)

Hint: Since -1 is less than 0, this means that you'll use the second definition. So you'll plug in x=-1 into because this is only defined when
