Proof: n is Odd if and only if 3n+5 is Even

Показать описание
We prove n is odd if and only if 3n+5 is even using a direct proof and a contrapositive proof. This is, of course, a biconditional proof, which gives us two directions to handle!

Z is integers numbers, it can be + or -, so n should be in N set?

That's was very pretty explanation, but I'm having difficulties in dealing with this problem now
For every integer X, X + 4 is odd if and only if X + 7 is even, may you help please please

Do you have any tips on when the implication is less direct? Like say 5n-3 is odd -> n+4 is even. How would you go about proving the implication when there are constants added in?

Thank you. For me, it was a 'eureka' moment when you decomposed 5 into 2(2) + 1. That part didn't occur to me, and it was like music :D

A different approach for the 2nd:
3n+5 even
3n+3+2 is even
3n+3 is even
3(n+1) is even, 3 is odd then n+1 should be even, so n is odd
