Which of the following functions are odd, even or neither?

In summary, the conversation involves a student seeking confirmation on their answers for a homework problem. They provide their answers, but are asked to show their work. After redoing their calculations, they ask for confirmation again. However, when asked to show their work, they admit to being too lazy to write it all out. This results in the other participants refusing to help until they see the work.

B. Neither
C. Odd

Are these correct?

Only C is correct. Care to show your work?

Some are and some aren't. Show us your work. I don't want to tell you which are wrong because that is almost giving you the answers.

So I redid my calculations. Are they correct now?

a) Odd
b) Even
c) Odd

As far as I'm concerned, no comment until you show us your work.

I think those are correct now. BTW, I have done the work in my notebook but I'm too lazy to write it all here.

Related to Which of the following functions are odd, even or neither?

What is an odd function?

An odd function is a mathematical function where f(-x) = -f(x) for all values of x. This means that the output of the function is symmetric across the origin (0,0) on a graph.

What is an even function?

An even function is a mathematical function where f(-x) = f(x) for all values of x. This means that the output of the function is symmetric across the y-axis on a graph.

How can you determine if a function is odd or even?

A function is odd if it passes the test f(-x) = -f(x) and even if it passes the test f(-x) = f(x). If neither test is true, then the function is neither odd nor even.

What are some examples of odd functions?

Some examples of odd functions include f(x) = x, f(x) = x^3, and f(x) = sin(x).

What are some examples of even functions?

Some examples of even functions include f(x) = x^2, f(x) = cos(x), and f(x) = |x|.
