Answer:

Neither even nor odd

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) = f(- x) then f(x) is even

If f(- x) = - f(x) then f(x) is odd

Given f(x) = x³ - x² + 4x + 2, then

f(- x) = (- x)³ - (- x)² + 4(- x) + 2 = - x³ - x² - 4x + 2

Since f(x) ≠ f(- x) then f(x) is not even

- f(x) = - (x³ - x² + 4x + 2) = - x³ + x² - 4x - 2

Since f(- x) ≠ - f(x) then f(x) is not odd

Thus f(x) is neither even nor odd

The question is asking for how many minutes it walks. Since it walks 5 meter per minute and walks 62.5 meters, you have to divide 62.5 by 5 to get how many minutes the tortoise walks. 62.5 divide by 5 is 12.5. in minutes, 0.5 is 30 seconds, therefore the tortoise walked for 12 minutes and 30 seconds or 12 1/2 minutes.

Answer:

Kennan will be from home approximately an hour and 48 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We must know that total time ( $t_{T}$ ) that Keenan will be from home is the sum of run ( $t_{R}$ ), hang out ( $t_{H}$ ) and walk times ( $t_{W}$ ), measured in hours:
