Full solution

Q. Is the function q(x)=4x43x3q(x) = -4x^4 - 3x^3 even, odd, or neither?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)even\newline(B)odd\newline(C)neither
  1. Plug in x-x: Plug in x-x for xx in the function to find q(x)q(-x).\newlineq(x)=4(x)43(x)3q(-x) = -4(-x)^4 - 3(-x)^3
  2. Simplify q(x)q(-x): Simplify the function q(x)q(-x).q(x)=4x4+3x3q(-x) = -4x^4 + 3x^3
  3. Compare q(x)q(x) and q(x)q(-x): Compare q(x)q(x) and q(x)q(-x).
    q(x)=4x43x3q(x) = -4x^4 - 3x^3
    q(x)=4x4+3x3q(-x) = -4x^4 + 3x^3
    Since q(x)q(x)q(-x) \neq q(x) and q(x)q(x)q(-x) \neq -q(x), the function is neither even nor odd.
