Suppose that $a$, $b$, and $c$ are odd integers. I shall prove that $a + b + c$ is an odd integer. 2. Since $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers, $a + b + c$ is also an integer 3.

Since $x$ is rational, there exists integers $p$ and $q$ such that $x = p/q$ and $q ≠ 0$. 3. Thus $x - 5 = p/q - 5$ 4. Since $5$ is an integer, $5$ is also a rational number written as $5/1$ 5. Therefore $p/q - 5 = p/q - 5/1$ 6. Working $p/q - 5/1$ we get $(p - 5q)/(q × 1)$ which is $(p - 5q)/q$ 7.

Divide both sides by $3$ giving $x/3 = (p/q + 5)/3$ 5. $(p/q + 5)/3$ is also rational 6. Therefore $x/3$ is rational ] \ c.) If $x/3$ is rational, then $x$ is rational #solve[][ 1.

Since $m$ is even, there exists an integer $k$ such that $m = 2k$ 3. Since $n$ is even, there exists an integer $j$ such that $n = 2j$ 4. Thus, $m - n = 2k - 2j = 2(k - j )$ 5. Since $k - j$ is an integer, $2(k - j)$ is even 6. Therefore, if $m$ is even and $n$ is even, $m - n$ is even ] b.) Prove the statement by using a proof by contradiction #solve[][ 1. Let $m$ and $n$ be integers. Assume then that $m - n$ is odd, but both $m$ and $n$ are even 2. If $m$ is even, then $m = 2k$ for some integer $k$ 3. If $n$ is even, then $n = 2j$ for some integer $j$ 4. Then $m - n = 2k - 2j = 2(k - j)$ 5. But $2(k - j)$ is even, which contradicts that $m - n$ is odd 6.
