Provide an appropriate response.
A function is considered to be an even function if f(-x) = f(x). That is, the function is even if the value of a function for a given number is the same as the value of the function for the opposite of the given number. A function is considered to be an odd function if f(-x) = f(x). That is, the function is odd if the value of the function for a given number is the opposite of the value of the function for the opposite of the given number. For example, if for a certain function f(2) = 5 and f(-2) = 5, then it is even; and if for a certain function f(7) = -2 and f(-7) = 2, then it is odd.Given the function f(x) = x2 + 1, is the function even, odd, or neither? Evaluate f(3), f(-3), f(1), and f(-1) to make this determination.
A. odd
B. even
C. neither

Solve the problem.Rachel's bus leaves at 7:25 PM and accelerates at the rate of 3 meters per second per second. Rachel, who can run 8 meters per second, arrives at the bus station 3 seconds after the bus has left. Find parametric equations that describe the motions of the bus and Rachel as a function of time. Determine algebraically whether Rachel will catch the bus. If so, when?
A. Bus: x1 = 
t2, y1 = 2; Rachel: x2 = 8(t - 3), y2 = 4
Rachel will catch the bus at 7:30 PM
B. Bus: x1 = 
t2, y1 = 2; Rachel: x2 = 8(t - 3), y2 = 4
Rachel won't catch the bus.
C. Bus: x1 = 3t2, y1 = 2; Rachel: x2 = 4(t - 3), y2 = 4
Rachel will catch the bus at 7:29 PM
D. Bus: x1 = 
t2, y1 = 2; Rachel: x2 = 8(t + 3), y2 = 4
Rachel won't catch the bus.
