Rotations, reflections and enlargements.
What is the difference between even and odd polynomial functions?
Even polynomial functions have f(x) = f(-x). For example, if f(x) = x^2, then f(-x) = (-x)^2 which is x^2. therefore it is even. Odd polynomial functions occur when f(x)= -f(x). For example, f(x) = x^3 + x f(-x) = (-x)^3 + (-x) f(-x) = -x^3 - x f(-x) = -(x^3 + x) Therefore, f(-x) = -f(x) It is odd
What are parent functions in math?
They are basic functions on which other functions depend. for ex. x^2 is a parent function for 2x^2.
