Given that the equation f(x) + xf(1-x) = x holds for every real number x. The value of f(-1) + f(1) is .... (A) -1 (B) 0 (C) 1/3 (D) 1 (E) 4/3 let's start with x = 0 The given info tells us that f(x) + xf(1-x) = x So, f(0) + 0f(1-0) = 0 Simplify to get: f(0) + 0 = 0 This means that f(0) = 0 Now try...
