Graphs of Odd and Even Functions

Example 2

Show that   f(x)= x 3 is an odd function and its graph is symmetric with respect to the origin.



Solution

Note that   f(x)= (x) 2 = x 3 . Thus,   f(x)=f(x). This implies that the function   f(x) is odd. Its graph is shown below. Observe that it is symmetric with respect to the origin.
