1. Since -4 doesn’t equal -2, we will use the first function. All you have to do is plug in -4 to x, and you should get

-3

2. -2=-2, so we will use the second function to get the answer of

3

3. Once again we will be using the first function, so just plug 5 into the answer to get

-7.5

Hope this helped :)
