Evaluate each option

1. f(x)=1-x

Now, check what would be f(1-x). Replace x in the above eq with 1-x

f(1-x) = 1-(1-x) = x

So we see that f(1-x) neq f(x)

2. f(x) = x^2-(1-x)^2

f(1-x) = (1-x)^2 - (1-(1-x))^2 = (1-x)^2 - x^2

Again f(x) neq f(1-x)

Similarly, do the same for C, D and E

You will see that for D

f(x)=(f(1-x)=x^2*(1-x)^2

Hope this clears your doubt
