Answer:

-1

Explanation:

For piecewise functions, you should look at the range of values and see where the number you are looking for falls. In this case, -1 is included in the domain of the middle equation, so you will be using f(x) = x

Then, all you have to do is plug in -1 for x, so f(-1) = -1
