Not a timed or graded assignment. quick answer = amazing review :) there is a time rush on this question

Answer 1

The correct answer is option B. Tom's work is incorrect. He made a mistake in step 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

`f(x)=x^3+x`

When he did the calculations for f(-x), he only replaced the x in the cubic term.

The correct step 1 is:

`f(-x)=(-x)^3+(-x)`
`f(-x)=-x^3-x`

And now, we can see that:

`f(-x)=-f(x)`

Thus, the function is ODD.
