Four functions are given below. Either the function is defined explicitly, or the entire graph of the function is shown.
For each, decide whether it is an even function, an odd function, or neither.

Even function :
1) f(x) = f(-x)
2) the graph looks symmetrical about y-axis. In other words, if u fold ur graph along y-axis and the left and right curves overlap exactly.
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Odd function :
1) f(x) = -f(x)
2) the graph looks symmetrical about the point (0, 0).

lets start wid ur second graph,
it falls into one of the above definitions. which one do u think it fits more ? :)

odd

wat about "first graph" and "last equation" ?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
il give a hint : they both fall into same category
