(((x + y) / 3) + (1 / x)) / (5 + (15 / x))
The best way is to make it one fraction.
Multiply by ((3x/3x) / (3x/3x)) to remove the other fractions.
((x(x + y)) + 3(1)) / (5(3x) + 3(15))
(x^2 + xy + 3) / (15x + 45)
Then factor to simplify
(x^2 + xy + 3) / (3(x + 15))
290.4 I'm guessing cuz bbn it closest to what I got
Let's see.
We have function
. We have to determine if the function is even or odd or neither.
We can find this out in many ways but the assignment specifically asks to prove this algebraically.
Function is even if
, so,
Which is true since negative raised to an even power is positive to that same number.
Similarly, function is odd if
, that is,
.
So we have prooved that function
is an even function not an odd function and therefore also not neither.
Hope this helps.
