Solution to Odd-Numbered Exercises

1. A horizontal shift results when a constant is added to or subtracted from the input. A vertical shifts results when a constant is added to or subtracted from the output.

3. A horizontal compression results when a constant greater than 1 is multiplied by the input. A vertical compression results when a constant between 0 and 1 is multiplied by the output.

5. For a function $f$, substitute $\left(-x\right)$ for $\left(x\right)$ in $f\left(x\right)$. Simplify. If the resulting function is the same as the original function, $f\left(-x\right)=f\left(x\right)$, then the function is even. If the resulting function is the opposite of the original function, $f\left(-x\right)=-f\left(x\right)$, then the original function is odd. If the function is not the same or the opposite, then the function is neither odd nor even.
