Q. Determine whether the function f(x)=7x3+3x4+4x is even, odd or neither.neitheroddeven
Select function for f(−x):f(x)=7x3+3x4+4xSelect the function for f(−x).Substitute −x for x in f(x)=7x3+3x4+4x.f(−x)=7(−x)3+3(−x)4+4(−x)
Substitute −x in f(x):f(−x)=7(−x)3+3(−x)4+4(−x) Simplify the right side of the function. f(−x)=7(−x)3+3(−x)4−4xf(−x)=−7x3+3x4−4x
Simplify right side: We have:f(x)=7x3+3x4+4xf(−x)=−7x3+3x4−4xIs the function f(x) even, odd, or neither?We have f(x)=7x3+3x4+4x and f(−x)=−7x3+3x4−4x.Since f(−x) is not equal to f(x) and f(−x) is not equal to −f(x), f(x) is neither even nor odd.
