How do you determine if #f(x)=7# is an even or odd function?

2 Answers

"7" is an odd number

Explanation:

Please follow the following steps:

1) Divide the given numerical number by 2.
2) If the answer is real number , such as 3.5, then we have odd number.
3) If the answer is integer number, such as 3, then we have an even number.

Examples:
A) #"7"/"2"# = 3.5 is areal or odd number
B) #"6"/"2"# = 3 is an integer or even number

#f(x) = 7# is an even function.

Explanation:

  • A function #f(x)# is even if #f(-x) = f(x)# for all #x# in the domain of #f(x)#.

  • A function #f(x)# is odd if #f(-x) = -f(x)# for all #x# in the domain of #f(x)#

In our example, with #f(x) = 7# we find:

#f(-x) = 7 = f(x)#

for all #x#

So #f(x)# is even.
