If f(x) is an odd function and f(-3)=5, what is f(3)?
Please show me how you do this type of problem if you can. :)
Um well this is literally the problem on my homework. The function f(x) is an *odd function* Hopefully that makes more sense.

If f(x) is an odd function, and when the input is negative and comes out positive, then I think that what it is getting at is that when the input is positive, the output will be negative.
Odd functions, when graphed, have ends going in generally opposite directions/quadrants (unlike a parabola). If this is truly the COMPLETE homework question, it may have to be assumed that the answer is -5, also assuming that the function is very basic without any strange transformations.

'Æ(x) is odd' means,
Æ(x)=-Æ(-x)
!!!... how is your Æ(x) related to Æ(-3)?...
If i assume The question means,
If Æ(-3) =5 is odd,find Æ(3).
Then,
Æ(-3) =5
Æ(-3) = -Æ(3)
Æ(3) = -Æ(-3)
Æ(3)= -5
So,Æ(3) would be -5

I don't think you have enough information here. What is f(x) ??
