Question

If the parent function f(x) = x2 is modified to g(x) = 2x2 + 1, which statement is true about g(x)?

It is an even function.

It is an odd function.

It is both an even and an odd function.

It is neither an even nor an odd function.

Answer 1

f(x)=x^2 is modified to g(x)=2x^2+1

Answer 2

A function f(x) is an even function if f(-x) = f(x). In other words, replacing x with -x doesn't modify the function.

A function f(x) is an odd function if f(-x) = -f(x). In other words, replacing x with -x is identical to the equation obtained after multiplying each term by -1.
