Question

Determine if the following function is even, odd, or neither. (1 point)

f(x) = -9x^4 + 5x + 3

Answer 1

sorry it's 9x^4

Answer 2

-9

Answer 3

\[f(x)=9x^4+5x+3\]

Answer 4

put x=-1 if then f(x)=-f(x) then it is odd f(x)=f(x) then it is even

Answer 5

so then the equation would be\[f(x)=9(-1)^4+5(-1)+3\]?

Answer 6

came out with 7 so then the equation is even

Answer 7

Just plug in \(-x\) for \(x\). If for \(f(-x)\), you get back to \(f(x)\), then it is even function.

If you get \(-f(x)\), then it is odd. If neither, then it is neither. (duh)

Answer 8

So plug in -x and simplify, do you get f(x) or -f(x)?
