Which option is correct for the function F ( x ) = ( 3012 x ) x 2 + 1 1 x 2 ? F(x) = (3012 - x)\lfloor x^2 \rfloor + \dfrac1{\sqrt{1-x^2}}?

Notation : \lfloor \cdot \rfloor denotes the floor function .

Even function None of these choices Both even and odd function Odd function

Given F ( x ) = ( 3012 x ) x 2 + 1 1 x 2 F(x) = (3012 - x)\lfloor x^2 \rfloor +\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}

Now the part of the function 1 1 x 2 \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} is defined in the interval x ( 1 , 1 ) x \in (-1,1) in which x 2 ( 0 , 1 ) x^2 \in (0,1) therefore x 2 = 0 \lfloor x^2 \rfloor= 0

So the function clearly becomes 1 1 x 2 \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}} in its domain which is clearly an even function \boxed{\text{even function}}
