Even functions have symmetry about the y axis
Odd functions have rotational symmetry about the origin

eyust707 · Answer

also with even functions $f(x) = f(-x)$ that means we could put a -x in for x and it would not change out answer

anonymous · Answer

i got B . is that right ?

eyust707 · Answer

Well I believe the function to be even because  $x^6$ is the same as $(-x)^6$

anonymous · Answer

oh yeah that would make sense!! its either C or D then :/ i think its D since the first number is a -

anonymous · Answer

dang . so C ? i graphed it on my calculator & it looks like the second one .

eyust707 · Answer

Actually yess D is correct

eyust707 · Answer

sorry

eyust707 · Answer

I misread it

eyust707 · Answer

but its D not because the first number has a - sign but because the "x^6" has a - sign in front of it

anonymous · Answer

ohhh okay. thats what i thought but the graphs confused me... haha :P

eyust707 · Answer

sorry about that

anonymous · Answer

thats okay :)
