Suppose that this person drives at r mph going to the mountains, and gets there in 12 hours.  Returning, this person drives at (r+20) mph and gets home in 8 hours.  We don't know the distance yet, but can solve for the initial speed, r, by setting

d = 12r = (r+20)(8).  Solving for r, r=40 mph (going) and (40+20)mph = 60 mph (returning.  Since d=12 r, d = (12 hrs)(40 mph) = 480 miles (answer).

For any integer x,x2-x will always produce an even value
Levart [38]

Consider expression x^2-x. First, you can factor it:

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

Since x is integer number, then you can see that x-1 is previous integer number (x-1 is 1 unit smaller than x).

Therefore, x-1 and x are two consecutive integers. When you have two consecutive integers, one of them is always even and one is always odd. Multiplying even integer number by odd integer number you always get even integer number.

Thus, x^2-x is always even.
