Full solution

Q. Is the function k(x)=4x6+11xk(x) = -4x^6 + 11x even, odd, or neither?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)even\newline(B)odd\newline(C)neither
  1. Calculate k(x)k(-x): Calculate k(x)k(-x) by substituting x-x for xx in the function k(x)=4x6+11xk(x) = -4x^6 + 11x.\newlinek(x)=4(x)6+11(x)k(-x) = -4(-x)^6 + 11(-x)
  2. Simplify expression: Simplify the expression for k(x)k(-x).k(x)=4x611xk(-x) = -4x^6 - 11x
  3. Compare k(x)k(x) and k(x)k(-x): Compare k(x)k(x) and k(x)k(-x) to determine if the function is even, odd, or neither.\newlinek(x)=4x6+11xk(x) = -4x^6 + 11x\newlinek(x)=4x611xk(-x) = -4x^6 - 11x\newlineSince k(x)k(-x) is not equal to k(x)k(x) and k(x)k(-x) is not equal to k(x)-k(x), the function is neither even nor odd.
