So
if x is the number she spent on each sister and y is the number she spent on each nephew then
180=3x+2y

she wants to spend 15 dollars more on sisters than nephews
so
x=15+y
solve

we have
180=3x+2y and
x=15+y
subsitute 15+y for x

180=3(15+y)+2y
180=45+3y+2y
180=45+5y
minus 45 both sides
135=5y
divide both sides by 5
27=y

solve for x
x=15+y
x=15+27
x=42

she spent $42 on each sister

F(x) = 2(x+1)3 even or odd
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Neither even  nor odd.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =  2(x + 1)^3 = 2x^3 + 18x^2 + 54x + 54

f(-x) =  -2x^3 + 18x^2 - 54x + 54

If it was even f(x) would be = f(-x)   so it is NOT EVEN.

-f(x) =  2x^3 - 18x^2 + 54x - 54

So f(-x) is not = -f(x) so it is not ODD either.
