Is this function even, odd, or neither even or odd??? F(x)=-3x^4-2x-5

satellite73 (satellite73):

it is a polynomial list the exponents

OpenStudy (legacy0110):

the exponent is 4, right?

satellite73 (satellite73):

that is one exponent, there are more

satellite73 (satellite73):

perhaps i should have said "list the degree of each term" in that polynomial

satellite73 (satellite73):

guess my question was not clear let's do something else what is \[f(1)\]?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

it is odd iff f(-x)=-x Can this happen with square terms?

satellite73 (satellite73):

hmm

satellite73 (satellite73):

@zzr0ck3r made a slight typo, odd of \[f(-x)=-f(x)\]

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

lol yes that

satellite73 (satellite73):

the short answer is, since it is a polynomial with both even and odd exponents in it, the answer is ...

OpenStudy (legacy0110):

sorry i was trying to finish another assignment, is the answer neither?
