Answer:

B. The contradiction of the statement is proven false, so the original

statement is therefore proven true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the opposite and then get to a point where we get a false statement.   That proves that the the opposite of the opposite ( what we originally wanted to prove) is true.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 )  2 + 7t                        [ there are no like terms , so no further simplifying ]

2) 6r + ( - 16 r )

   =  6 r - 16 r                 [ both are like terms ]

   = - 10 r

3) (3x + 2 ) + ( 2x - 4 )

   = 3x + 2 + 2x - 4

   = 3x + 2x - 4 + 2               [ arranging like terms together ]

   = 5x - 2

4) (8 n² - 3 n + 6 ) + ( n - 2 )

   = 8n² - 3n  + 6 + n - 2

   = 8n² - 3n + n + 6 - 2             [ bringing like terms together ]

   = 8n² - 2n + 4
