<span>We prove first the direct implication. Assume n is even. Then n = 2k for some integer k. Then 7n + 4 = 14k + 4 = 2(7k + 2), which is even. For the converse, which is “if 7n + 4 is even, then n is even”, we use a proof by contrapositive. The contrapositive is: “if n is not even (that is, odd), then 7n + 4 is not even (that is, odd) If n is odd, then n = 2k + 1, for some integer k. Then 7n + 4 = 14k + 11 = 2(7k + 5) + 1, which is odd.</span>

Quadrilateral ABCD is located at A (−2, 2), B (−2, 4), C (2, 4), and D (2, 2). The quadrilateral is then transformed using the r
Mademuasel [1]
New cordinates are formed by adding 7 in x and subtracting 2 from y
A(−2, 2) =A ' (-2 +7 , 2 - 1 ) = A' (5,1)
B(−2, 4)  = B' (-2 + 7 , 4 -1 )= B' (5,3)
C(2, 4)   =  C' (2 + 7 , 4 -1 )= C' (9,3)
