Determine if the function is even or odd

The video tutorial explains the concept of odd functions, highlighting that when you plug in negative X, you get the opposite of the original function. It uses graphical representation and examples, such as the cubic function, to illustrate the symmetry about the origin. The tutorial also includes calculations to demonstrate how odd functions work, emphasizing the opposite values obtained when negative inputs are used.

Why is the cubic function considered an odd function?

What happens when you plug in a positive value and its negative counterpart into an odd function?
