Explain why the function of f(x)=4x^2+8x is neither even or odd

By putting x = -x in f(x) i.e. f(-x) we didn't get f(x) or -f(x) so, the function is neither even nor odd.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to explain why the function of is neither even or odd

First we will understand, when the function is even and odd

Even function:

A function is even if f(-x) = f(x)

Odd function:

A function is odd if f(-x) = -f(x)

So, if we get the above result by putting x = -x, then we can say that the function is even or odd.

If we don't get any of the above results then the function is neither even nor odd.

So, for the given function:

Put x = -x

So, by putting x=-x in f(x) i.e. f(-x) we didn't get f(x) or -f(x) so, the function is neither even nor odd.

ab will be equal to

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
