Final answer:

To find p(-3) and p(3) for the function p(x) = 8x^4 + 4x^3 - 8x^2 + 11x + 2, substitute -3 and 3 for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find p(-3) and p(3) for the function p(x) = 8x^4 + 4x^3 - 8x^2 + 11x + 2, we substitute -3 and 3 for x in the function.

For p(-3), we have p(-3) = 8(-3)^4 + 4(-3)^3 - 8(-3)^2 + 11(-3) + 2. Evaluating this expression gives us the value of p(-3).

For p(3), we have p(3) = 8(3)^4 + 4(3)^3 - 8(3)^2 + 11(3) + 2. Evaluating this expression gives us the value of p(3).
