Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image contains four questions asking whether each given function is odd, even, or neither.
Let's analyze each function one by one:
1. Function 1:
- Odd Function: A function is odd if .
- Even Function: A function is even if .
Calculating :
This is not equal to or . Therefore, the function is neither even nor odd.
2. Function 2:
Calculating :
Since and , the function is neither even nor odd.
3. Function 3:
Calculating :
Since , the function is even.
4. Function 4:
Calculating :
Since , the function is odd.
Conclusion:
- Function 1 is neither.
- Function 2 is neither.
- Function 3 is even.
- Function 4 is odd.
Would you like further details on any of these explanations, or do you have any questions?
Here are some related questions to deepen your understanding:
- What are the conditions for a function to be even or odd?
- How can we graphically determine if a function is even or odd?
- What are some examples of functions that are both even and odd?
- What happens to the symmetry of a function if we add or multiply by another function?
- Can a function that is neither even nor odd be split into a sum of an even and an odd function?
Tip: Checking the symmetry of a function is often easiest by substituting with and comparing the result to the original function.
