Full solution

Q. Is the function p(x)=2x43x2+6p(x) = 2x^4 - 3x^2 + 6 even, odd, or neither?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)even\newline(B)odd\newline(C)neither
  1. Check Even Function: Check if p(x)p(x) is even by substituting x-x for xx and comparing p(x)p(-x) to p(x)p(x).p(x)=2(x)43(x)2+6p(-x) = 2(-x)^4 - 3(-x)^2 + 6
  2. Simplify p(x)p(-x): Simplify the expression for p(x)p(-x).p(x)=2x43x2+6p(-x) = 2x^4 - 3x^2 + 6
  3. Compare p(x)p(-x) with p(x)p(x): Compare p(x)p(-x) with p(x)p(x).\newlineSince p(x)=p(x)p(-x) = p(x), the function p(x)p(x) is even.
