Is the function r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2 even, odd, or neither? Choices: (A)even (B)odd (C)neither

Define function r(x): r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2 Select the function for r(-x). Substitute -x for x in r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2. r(-x) = 3(-x)^6 + (-x)^2Substitute -x in r(x): r(-x) = 3(-x)^6 + (-x)^2 Simplify the right side of the function. r(-x) = 3x^6 + x^2Simplify r(-x): We have: r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2 r(-x) = 3x^6 + x^2 Is the function r(x) even, odd, or neither? Since r(-x) = r(x), r(x) is an even function.

Q. Is the function

r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2

even, odd, or neither?

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)even

\newline

(B)odd

\newline

(C)neither

Define function $r(x)$ : $r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2$ $\newline$ Select the function for $r(-x)$ . $\newline$ Substitute $-x$ for $x$ in $r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2$ . $\newline$ $r(-x) = 3(-x)^6 + (-x)^2$
Substitute $-x$ in $r(x)$ : $r(-x) = 3(-x)^6 + (-x)^2$ $\newline$ Simplify the right side of the function. $\newline$ $r(-x) = 3x^6 + x^2$
Simplify $r(-x)$ : We have: $\newline$ $r(x) = 3x^6 + x^2$ $\newline$ $r(-x) = 3x^6 + x^2$ $\newline$ Is the function $r(x)$ even, odd, or neither? $\newline$ Since $r(-x) = r(x)$ , $r(x)$ is an even function.
