Using the definition of even and odd functions explain why y= sin x+ 1 is neither even or odd ?
Can you show how you worked it out cause I'm not sure on how to plug it in exactly
A function is even if, for each x in the domain of f, f (- x) = f (x). The even functions have reflective symmetry through the y-axis. A function is odd if, for each x in the domain of f, f (- x) = - f (x). The odd functions have rotational symmetry of 180º with respect to the origin.
For y = without x + 1 we have: Let's see if it's even: f (-x) = sin (-x) + 1 f (-x) = -sin (x) + 1 It is NOT even because it does not meet f (- x) = f (x) Let's see if it's odd: f (-x) = sin (-x) + 1 f (-x) = -sin (x) + 1 It is NOT odd because it does not comply with f (- x) = - f (x) Answer: It is not even and it is not odd.
