Determining If a Polynomial Function is Even or Odd

The video tutorial explains how to evaluate functions without a calculator, focusing on determining if a function is even or odd. It describes the process of evaluating a function for negative X and checking if the result matches the original function or its opposite. The tutorial concludes that the function in question is neither even nor odd after testing both possibilities.

What is the significance of evaluating F of negative X in determining if a function is even or odd?

Explain the conditions under which a function is classified as even.
