Answer:

1) Even for first problem.

2) Neither for the second.

I really think the problem I labeled 1 is the correct interpretation but just in case you meant the latter I wrote the latter as well. The sentence translates to exactly what I have for problem number 1.

The Problem:

1) Determine if f(x)=x+\frac{4}{x} is even, odd, or neither.

2) Determine if f(x)=\frac{x+4}{x} is even, odd, or neither.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-x)=f(x) implies f is even.

f(-x)=-f(x) implies f is odd.

So either definition says we have to plug in -x.

1)

f(x)=x+\frac{4}{x} with new input -x:

f(-x)=-x+\frac{4}{-x}

f(-x)=-x+-\frac{4}{x}

f(-x)=-(x+\frac{4}{x})

f(-x)=-f(x)

This means f is even since we got the same thing we started with.

2)

f(x)=\frac{x+4}{x} with new input -x:

f(-x)=\frac{-x+4}{-x}

f(-x)=\frac{-(x-4)}{-x}

f(-x)=\frac{x-4}{x}

This is neither the same or the opposite of what we started with.

Which of the following are roots of the polynomial function? Check all that apply.
lutik1710 [3]

You know 1 is not a root because the sum of the coeffcients of the equation is 14, not zero.

It is fairly easy to try 3 by synthetic division (see attachment), which tells you that 3 is a root and the remaining quadratic factor is x²-3x-5. The quadratic formula tells you the roots of that factor are

... x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) = (3±√29)/2

The appropriate choices are

... C. (3-√29)/2

... D. (3+√29)/2

... F. 3

_____

The quadratic formula tells you the solution to

... ax²+bx+c=0

is x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)

We have a=1, b=-3, c=-5.
