Identify the monomial function described as odd or even, and indicate whether a is positive or negative.

Answer:

Case 1: As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

It is an 'odd' function with 'positive' a.

Case 2: As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

It is an 'even' function with 'negative' a.

Case 3: As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

It is an 'even' function with 'positive' a.

Case 4: As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

It is an 'odd' function with 'negative' a.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a monomial function:

             f(x) = axⁿ

Case 1:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

This happens only if a is 'positive' and n is 'odd'.  So, it is an 'odd' function with 'positive' a.

Case 2:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) decreases.

This happens only if a is 'negative' and n is 'even'. So, it is an 'even' function with 'negative' a.

Case 3:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) increases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

This happens only if a is 'positive' and n is 'even'. So, it is an 'even' function with 'positive' a.

Case 4:

As x > 0 increases, f(x) decreases.  As x < 0 decreases, f(x) increases.

This happens only if a is 'negative' and n is 'odd'. So, it is an 'odd' function with 'negative' a.

Prove: The square of a number that is
Nikolay [14]

Let 3<em>n</em> + 1 denote the "number" in question. The claim is that

(3<em>n</em> + 1)² = 3<em>m</em> + 1

for some integer <em>m</em>.

Now,

(3<em>n</em> + 1)² = (3<em>n</em>)² + 2 (3<em>n</em>) + 1²

… = 9<em>n</em>² + 6<em>n</em> + 1

… = 3<em>n</em> (3<em>n</em> + 2) + 1

… = 3<em>m</em> + 1

where we take <em>m</em> = <em>n</em> (3<em>n</em> + 2).
