Is the function t(x) = -4x^7 + 2x even, odd, or neither? Choices: (A)even (B)odd (C)neither

Check Even Function: Check if t(x) is even by evaluating t(-x) and comparing it to t(x). t(-x) = -4(-x)^7 + 2(-x)Simplify t(-x): Simplify t(-x). t(-x) = -4(-x)^7 + 2(-x) = 4x^7 - 2xCompare t(-x) and t(x): Compare t(-x) with t(x). t(x) = -4x^7 + 2x t(-x) = 4x^7 - 2x Since t(-x) is not equal to t(x), t(x) is not even.Check Odd Function: Check if t(x) is odd by evaluating if t(-x) is equal to -t(x). -t(x) = -(-4x^7 + 2x) = 4x^7 - 2xCompare -t(x) and t(-x): Compare -t(x) with t(-x). -t(x) = 4x^7 - 2x t(-x) = 4x^7 - 2x Since t(-x) is equal to -t(x), t(x) is odd.

Q. Is the function

t(x) = -4x^7 + 2x

even, odd, or neither?

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)even

\newline

(B)odd

\newline

(C)neither

Check Even Function: Check if $t(x)$ is even by evaluating $t(-x)$ and comparing it to $t(x)$ . $\newline$ $t(-x) = -4(-x)^7 + 2(-x)$
Simplify $t(-x)$ : Simplify $t(-x)$ . $t(-x) = -4(-x)^7 + 2(-x) = 4x^7 - 2x$
Compare $t(-x)$ and $t(x)$ : Compare $t(-x)$ with $t(x)$ . $\newline$ $t(x) = -4x^7 + 2x$ $\newline$ $t(-x) = 4x^7 - 2x$ $\newline$ Since $t(-x)$ is not equal to $t(x)$ , $t(x)$ is not even.
Check Odd Function: Check if $t(x)$ is odd by evaluating if $t(-x)$ is equal to $-t(x)$ . $-t(x) = -(-4x^7 + 2x) = 4x^7 - 2x$
Compare $-t(x)$ and $t(-x)$ : Compare $-t(x)$ with $t(-x)$ .
$-t(x) = 4x^7 - 2x$
$t(-x) = 4x^7 - 2x$
Since $t(-x)$ is equal to $-t(x)$ , $t(x)$ is odd.
