If \(p(x)=x^3+3x^2+3x+1\), what is the value of \(p(-2)\)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: -1

The polynomial matches the identity \(a^3+3a^2b+3ab^2+b^3=(a+b)^3\), so \(p(x)=(x+1)^3\). Hence, \(p(-2)=(-2+1)^3=(-1)^3=-1\). The value 0 would result from incorrectly substituting \(x=-1\). Exam tip: look for the perfect-cube identity before expanding or calculating term by term.
