Todd and Jason both solved an equation and ended up with this final line in their work: -2x ≠ x. • Todd says, "This equation has no solution because -2 + 4."
• Jason says, "The solution is - 2 because -2(-2) = 4."
Do you agree with either Todd or Jason? Explain your reasoning.

step-by-step explanation:

to determine whether a given function is even, we simply substitute x with -x in the expression. if the result after simplification is identical to the original equation, then the function is said to be even other wise odd.

f(-x) = (-x)^2 - (-x) + 8

      = x^2 + x +8

the resulting function is not identical to the original one;

f(-x) ≠ f(x)

therefore, f(x) is not an even function

the correct answers are 1, 2, 4, and 5! i just got it right!

if i knew id you bro,, my bad
