Question
Below is a statement of a theorem and a proof by contrapositive with some parts of the argument replaced by capital letters.
Theorem: For every positive integer x, if x³ is even, then x is even.
Proof by contrapositive.
Let x be a pos itive integer. Assume A. We will prove that B.
If x is odd, then it can be written as Cfor some integer k. Plug in the expressionn for x into x to get D. The expression for x³ can be written as E.
Since (4k + 6k² +3k) is an integer, we can conclude that x³ is odd.
What is the correct expression for D?
O 2k3 + 13
8k3 + 6k2 + 12k + 1
O 8k3 + 12k? + 6k + 1
O 8k3
O 12k2
