Even numbers are divisible by two and odd numbers are not.
Try some examples to see if you can find a counter-example.

2 + 3 = 5 (odd sum)

4 + 7 = 11 (odd sum)

20 + 9 = 29 (odd sum)

So the sum of an even number and odd number is odd, not even. Your statement above is FALSE.

A flower pot’s base has six sides that are all the same length. Each side measures x−6x-6 units. The base’s perimeter is 78 unit

Answer: The answer is x = 19.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a flower pot has a base with six equal sides of measurement (x - 6) units. We are to find the value of the unknown quantity 'x' if the perimeter of the base is 78 units.

We know that the perimeter of a polygon is given by the sum of the lengths of all the sides of the polygon.

Since each side of the six-sided base is (x - 6) units, so its perimeter will be

$6\times(x-6)~\textup{units}.$
