Q. The table shows the values of an even function for some inputs. \newline\begin{array}{c|c} x & f(x) \\hline -4 & 2 \ -3 & \ -2 & 8 \ -1 & \ 0 & 10 \ 1 & \ 2 & \ 3 & \ 4 & 0 \ \end{array}\newlineComplete the table.
  1. Define Even Function: An even function has the property that f(x)=f(x)f(x) = f(-x) for all xx in the domain of the function. This means that the function is symmetric with respect to the yy-axis. We can use this property to find the missing values in the table.
  2. Use Symmetry Property: Since f(x)f(x) is even, f(4)f(-4) should be equal to f(4)f(4). The table shows f(4)=2f(-4) = 2, so f(4)f(4) must also be 22.
  3. Find f(4)f(4): Similarly, f(3)f(-3) should be equal to f(3)f(3). The table shows f(3)=8f(-3) = 8, so f(3)f(3) must also be 88.
  4. Find f(3)f(3): Next, f(2)f(-2) should be equal to f(2)f(2). The table shows f(2)=10f(-2) = 10, so f(2)f(2) must also be 1010.
  5. Find f(2)f(2): Finally, f(1)f(-1) should be equal to f(1)f(1). The table shows f(1)=1f(-1) = -1, so f(1)f(1) must also be 1-1.
  6. Find f(1)f(1): The value of f(0)f(0) is already given in the table as 00. Since f(0)=0f(0) = 0, it confirms that the function is even because f(0)=f(0)f(0) = f(-0).
