Question

Which statement is true about function f, which is shown in the graph? The graph shows a cubic function. The curve is drawn using the points (minus 1, 8), (minus 1, minus 3.5), (0, 0), (1, 3.5), and (1, minus 8) which intercepts (1, 0), and (minus 1, 0) A. Function f is odd. B. Function f is even. C. Function f is neither even nor odd. D. Function f is both even and odd.

Answer 1

We conclude that f(x) is odd, so the correct option is A.

Which statement is true?

f(x) is an odd function if:

f(-x) = -f(x).

f(x) is an even function if:

f(x) = f(-x).

In this case, we know that the function f(x) has the points:

{ (-2, 8), (-1, -3.5), (0, 0), (1, 3.5), (2, -8)}

As you can see:

f(-2) = 8

f(2) = -8

Then:

f(-2) = -f(2)

Also:

f(-1) = -3.5

f(1) = 3.5

Then:

f(-1) = -f(1).

So we conclude that this is an odd function, and the correct option is A.
