For a function (fn) to be odd:
f(x) = - f(-x)
For a fn to be even:
f(x) = f(-x)
For a fn to be neither even nor odd
f(x) != f(-x) [No Relation]
(-x)^n = x^n for n -> even
(-x)^n = -x^n for n -> odd
In your example:
f(x) = -4x^3 + 4x
f(-x) = -4 (-x)^3 + 4 (-x)^1 ( 3 and 1 are odd powers )
f(-x) = 4x^3 - 4x (take -1 common to do the check)
f(-x) = -( -4x^3 + 4x ) = - f(x) [between the bracket was the original fn]
f(x) = - f(-x)
so the function is odd also called symmetric about the origin
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
n can be represented as 1.
29 - 1 = 28

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4)^2 = x^2 -4x -4x + (-4)*(-4)
= x^2-8x+16 as required
Answer:
-5n - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The goal is to simplify this expression.
1. Distribute
-2.5 * 1 = -2.5
-2.5 * 2n = -5n
Now, we have
-2.5 - 5n - 1.5
2. Combine like terms
-2.5 + (-1.5) = -4 (+ * - = - The - cancels out the +)
3. Put it together
-5n - 4
I hope I helped!
