return a function without e.g. f(5)

I have never used Matlab before so it really is difficult for me as I now have a task in math course that says to interpolate a function with Lagrange.
My problem has nothing to do with the interpolation itself, more a question if something is possible and if so, how.
E.g. I say
f = @(x) x^3;
and p = @(x) f(2)*x
Matlab display p exactly like above but i would want it to display it as
p = @(x) 8*x
as is wouldn't make much sense to have the result as a polynomial with f(...) as values.
so i hope someone can help me with that.

If you have the symbolic toolbox,
syms x
p = matlabFunction(f(2)*x, x);
You did well, by the way, to realize that it was a matter of what was displayed rather than a matter of how it would execute.
