[Ma77yD182]

Homework Statement

the function decribed by
f(x) = (2, -2<x<2
= (0, 2<x<6

and f(x) = f(x+8)

Q1, what does the last equation mean in words?
Q2, how do i sketch the graph of the function f(x) over 3 periods?
Q4, is it odd or even?

The rules of the forum are that you need to attempt to answer these before anyone can help. It just has to be an attempt. What would a function that satisfies f(x)=f(x+8) look like? Any opinions?

Can you use those to find f(7)? Hint: 7= -1+ 8.

It's period will become 8 (obvious).
And determine odd or even function:
if f(-x) = f(x) then even function
if f(-x) = -f(x) then odd function.
