Which is an odd monomial function? A.y=2x^3 B.1/x C.5x^-9 D.3
Anna71 [15]
First let's review two concepts:
 Monomy: Algebraic expression that consists of a single term or in which the terms that form it are related by the product operation.
 Odd function: A function is odd if, for each x in the domain of f, f (- x) = - f (x).
 The function y = 2x ^ 3 complies with both definitions.
 Answer:
 an odd monomial function is:
 
A.y = 2x ^ 3
