Determine whether the function f(x) = 3(x - 1)^4 is even or odd

Mathematics

Elis [28]3 years ago

Answer:

The function is neither even nor odd.

Step-by-step explanation:

the function is even if f(-x) = f(x)

The function is odd if f(-x) = -f(x)

We are given the function:

f(x) = 3(x-1)^4

Solving

f(x) = 3(x^4 -4x^3+6x^2-4x+1)

f(x) = 3x^4-12x^3+18x^2-12x+3

Now putting -x instead of x i,e f(-x)

f(-x) = 3(-x)^4-12(-x)^3+18(-x)^2-12(-x)+3

Solving

f(-x) =3x^4+12x^3+18x^2+12x+3

so, f(-x) ≠ f(x) The function is not even

and f(-x) ≠ -f(x) The function is not odd

Hence the function is neither even nor odd.

A car that is purchased for $24,000 is expected to depreciate at a rate of 7% per year. If the function f(x) = abx models this s
Brilliant_brown [7]
Given that the original cost of the car is $24000 and it depreciates at the rate of 7%, the function that will represent the value of the car after 10 years will be given by:
f(x)=p(r)^t
where:
p=current cost
r=rate
t=time
but
p=24000, r=100-7=93%=0.93, t=10
thus the function that models the value of the car after 10 years is:
f(x)=24000(0.93)^10

Answer: <span>A) f(x) = 24,000(0.93)^10</span>

Which of the following expressions is the inverse of the function y = x - 2 over 3?
asambeis [7]

To find the inverse, you can either do this:

y=(x-2)/3      *switch x and y

x=(y-2)/3      *multiply 3 on both sides

x(3)=((y-2)/3)(3)     *the three cancels out on the right side

3x=y-2         *add the 2 on both sides

3x+2=y-2+2      *simplify

Final answer should be : 3x+2=y (inverse)
