Solution

Para determinar cuál de las funciones dadas debe ser par, primero recordemos las definiciones de funciones pares e impares:

  • Una función f(x) f(x) es par si f(x)=f(x) f(-x) = f(x) para todo x x .
  • Una función g(x) g(x) es impar si g(x)=g(x) g(-x) = -g(x) para todo x x .

Ahora, evaluemos cada una de las opciones:

I. f(g(x)) f(g(x))

Dado que g(x) g(x) es impar, tenemos que g(x)=g(x) g(-x) = -g(x) . Evaluemos f(g(x)) f(g(-x)) :

f(g(x))=f(g(x)) f(g(-x)) = f(-g(x))

Como f(x) f(x) es par, sabemos que f(g(x))=f(g(x)) f(-g(x)) = f(g(x)) . Por lo tanto, f(g(x)) f(g(x)) es par.

II. f(x)+g(x) f(x) + g(x)

Evaluemos f(x)+g(x) f(-x) + g(-x) :

f(x)+g(x)=f(x)+(g(x))=f(x)g(x) f(-x) + g(-x) = f(x) + (-g(x)) = f(x) - g(x)

Esto no es igual a f(x)+g(x) f(x) + g(x) , por lo que f(x)+g(x) f(x) + g(x) no es par.

III. f(x)g(x) f(x)g(x)

Evaluemos f(x)g(x) f(-x)g(-x) :

f(x)g(x)=f(x)(g(x))=f(x)g(x) f(-x)g(-x) = f(x)(-g(x)) = -f(x)g(x)

Esto es igual a [f(x)g(x)]-[f(x)g(x)], lo que indica que f(x)g(x) f(x)g(x) es impar, no par.

Por lo tanto, la única opción que debe ser par es la I.

La respuesta correcta es A.
