PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW TO SOLVE ALGEBRAICALLY
(1.) f(m)=10m^2/3 Determine whether the function is even, odd or neither

(2.) If f is an even function, determine if g is even, odd, or neither
g(x)= -f(x)+1

(2.) If f is an even function, determine if g is even, odd, or neither 
g(x)= -f(x)+1

superdavesuper · Answer

f(x) is even when f(x)=f(-x) so for (1) simply put in x=1 and x=-1 into f(x), are they the same?

blondisaurus · Answer

The end result of the first one comes out negative, so the function is even?

superdavesuper · Answer

Yup :) so u can use the same f(x) and use it to test g(x) in (2)

blondisaurus · Answer

How do you know when it is neither?

superdavesuper · Answer

I think if f(-x) is not equal to f(x) or -f(x) then it is neither

Ah, okay. Thank you!
