Essentially, the rule goes as so: odd + odd = even, even + even = even.
Although that may not be the answer you're looking for, it is a math rule that is never debunked and essentially the premises for why you get an even sum practically always depending on the numbers.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
a. x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
The Fraction is
10/x=2
The unknown from the fraction is x
We need to find the value of the unknown
10/x=2
Cross product
We have,
10=2x
Divide both sides by 2
10/2=2x/2
5=x
x=5
Answer is a. x=5
Check
10/5=2
Part A: Chose some value for x, that means any amount of books to print for example 100 books, so x=100
Replace x=100 in C(x) and solve:
C(100)=3.5*100+1200=1550
Part B: Replace C(x) by 1900 and solve for x from the given equation:
1900=3.5x+1200
3.5x=1900-1200
x=700/3.5= 200
Part C: the statement C(20)=1270 means that 1270 is the cost for printing 20 books.
Part E: C(40.5)=1341.75 I think this statement is incorrect given the context because x means number of books to print so this value must be an integer number.
