show that itis even or odd function F(x)=2x+5
Answers
To determine if a function is even/odd the following applies.
• If f(x) = f( -x) then f(x) is even , ∀x
Even functions have symmetry about the y-axis.
• If f( -x) = - f(x) then f(x) is odd , ∀x
Odd functions have symmetry about the origin.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Test for even :
f( -x) =2(−x)5−3(−x)2+2=−2x5−3x2+2
since f(x) ≠ f( -x) , then f(x) is not even.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Test for odd :
−f(x)=−(2x5−3x2+2)=−2x5+3x2−2
since -f(x) ≠ f( -x) , then f(x) is not odd.
Answer:
It is an odd function
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is 2x+5,
The sum of an even number (2x - because 2 multiplied by any number is even) and
odd number is odd.
for example, substitute x = 1 , x = 3
if x = 1, f(x) = 2(1) + 5 = 7
=> odd number
if x = 3, f(x) = 2(3) + 5 = 11
=> odd number
☆F(x)=2x+5 is an odd function
