I need to know what the value of this polynomial will be if x=2, x=3, x=4. For some reason I'm coming up with the result being the exact same as the x-value, and am not sure if that is a semantic error or not.

Yeah I tried using a calculator but I heard that's an outdated fashion in mathematics these days, so I couldn't trust the results. Plus what you say directly contradicts >>3 (unless I'm missing something obvious). Can anyone shed further light?
