Question
If f(x) is an even function and g(x) is an odd function, which of the following must be even?I. f(g(x))II. f(x) + g(x)III. f(x)g(x)A.I onlyB.II onlyC.I and II onlyD.II and III onlyE.
Solution
To determine which of the given expressions must be even, we need to analyze each one based on the properties of even and odd functions.
-
f(g(x)):
- Since is an odd function, .
- Since is an even function, .
- Therefore, .
- This shows that is even.
-
f(x) + g(x):
- For to be even, .
- Since is even, .
- Since is odd, .
- Therefore, .
- This is not equal to , so is not even.
-
f(x)g(x):
- For to be even, .
- Since is even, .
- Since is odd, .
- Therefore,
