Answer

$f(-4)=8$ $f(-1)=-1$ $f(-\frac{3}{2})=\frac{-3}{4}$ $f(0)=0$ $f(25)=-1$

Work Step by Step

Because $x=-4, x=\frac{-3}{2}, x=-1$ are in between $(-\infty,-1]$ of $f(x)=x^{2}+2x$ so $f(-4)=(-4)^{2}+2(-4)=8$ $f(-1)=(-1)^{2}+2(-1)=-1$ $f(\frac{-3}{2})=(-\frac{3}{2})^{2}+2(-\frac{3}{2})=\frac{-3}{4}$ x=0 is in between $(-1,1]$ of $f(x)=x$ So $f(0)=0$ x=25 is in between $(1,+\infty)$ of $f(x)=-1$ $f(25)=-1$
