S_A_V [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Proved below

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that n + 1 even when n is even, it means that;

n + 1 = 2x

Where x is an integer

Then;

n = 2x - 1

This means that n is odd because 2x - 1 is odd.

But we know that n is even, thus, our assumption is wrong.

Therefore, n + 1 is odd when n is even.

I have a 74% in my class and I need a 78% to pass what do I need to get on my final exam?
Mkey [24]
So the 74% that you have right now is the other 80% of your grade. So you multiply it by its weight and solve for the other one making it equal to 78%.

(.74)(.8) + (.2)(x) = .78
 .592 + (.2)(x) = .78
    (.2)(x) = .188
       (x) = .94

So, you need to get a 94% on your final test.
