What type of object could you best measure using calculus?
Finding the volume of many odd shapes is only possible with integral calculus. Google " volume of revolution. "
Can a function be both even and odd?
An even number can be divided by 2 evenly. An odd number will have a remainder of 1 when divided by 2. A function can be either.
How can you determine whether a function is even odd or neither?
Looking at the graph of the function can give you a good idea. However, to actually prove that it is even or odd may be more complicated. Using the definition of "even" and "odd", for an even function, you have to prove that f(x) = f(-x) for all values of "x"; and for an odd function, you have to prove that f(x) = -f(-x) for all values of "x".
When do you use even odd and neither functions?
Basically, a knowledge of even and odd functions can simplify certain calculations. One place where they frequently appear is when using trigonometric functions - for example, the sine function is odd, while the cosine function is even.
How do you find out if the function is a even odd or neither I know your supposed to use f-x -fx but I am not so sure how to do it the problem is 2x to the third power minus x squared?
An even function is symmetric around the vertical axis. An odd function - such as the sine function - has a sort of symmetry too - around the point of origin. If you graph this specific function (for example, on the Wolfram Alpha website), you can see that the function has none of these symmetries. To prove that the function is NOT even, nor odd, just find a number for which f(x) is neither f(-x) nor -f(-x). Actually proving that a function IS even or odd (assuming it actually is) is more complicated, of course - you have to prove that it has the "even" or the "odd" property for EVERY value of x. Let f(x) = 2x3 - x2. Notice that f is defined for any x, since it is a polynomial function. If f(-x) = f(x), then f is even. If f(-x) = -f(x), then f is odd. f(-x) = 2(-x)3 - (-x)2 = -2x3 - x2 Since f(-x) ≠ f(x) = 2x3 - x2, f is not even. Since f(-x) ≠ - f(x) = -(2x3 - x2) = -2x3 + x2, f is not odd. Therefore f is neither even nor odd.

Latin meaning for cirris?
Cirri or cirrus are the latin words which mean curl of hair. The base word form for 'curl' is 'cirrus', and that may be the word you were asking about. 'Cirris' is an inflected form - a changed ending that tells how the word is used. 'Cirris' is either dative or ablative plural, so it would translate to either 'to the curls (dative)' or 'by means of the curls (ablative). Either of those uses would be odd.
Will the sum of three odd numbers be even or odd?
odd. odd=odd odd+odd=even odd+odd+odd=odd it keeps alternating in that fashion
Why can't you get an even number when you add three odd numbers?
because... odd+odd=even even+odd=odd e.g 1+1+1=3 odd+odd+odd=odd
If you add 3 to an even number the sum would be odd or even?
Odd. Even + Even = Even Odd + Odd = Even Odd + Even = Even + Odd = Odd
Is 27 an odd number or even number?
27 is an odd number.
Is 49 even or odd?
49 is an odd number numbers ending in 1,3,5,7,9 are odd.
the number 5 is?
odd
Is 431 odd or even?
431 is an odd number
Is 23 even or odd?
23 is an odd number.
What is calculus in terms of Maths?
Calculus is basically a way of calculating rates of changes (similar to slopes, but called derivatives in calculus), and areas, volumes, and surface areas (starters). It's easy to calculate these kind of things with algebra and geometry if the shapes you're interested in are simple. For example, if you have a straight line you can claculate the slope easily. But if you want to know the slope at an arbitary point (any random point) on the graph of some function like x-squared or some other polynomial, than you would need to use calculus. In this case, calculus gives you a way of "zooming in" on the point you're interested in to find the slope EXACTLY at that point. This is called a derivative. If you have a cube or a sphere, you can calculate the volume and surface area easily. If you have an odd shape, you need to use calculus. You use calculus to make an infinite number of really small slices of the object you're interested in, determine the sizes of the slices, and then add all those slices up. This process is called integration. It turns out that integration is the reverse of derivation (finding a derivative). In summary, calculus is a tool that lets you do calclations with complicated curves, shapes, etc., that you would normally not be able to do with just algebra and geometry.
