Gemma makes a conjecture that the sum of an odd integer and itself is always an even integer. Which choice is the best proof of her conjecture? A) Look at these different examples: 7 + 7 = 14, 13 + 13 = 26, 23 + 23 = 46. So the sum of an odd number and itself must be even
B) Let 2n + 1 be an odd number; (2n + 1) + (2n + 1) = 4n + 2. Because 4(n + 2) is divisible by 2, the sum of 2n + 1 and itself is even.
C) Let n represent an odd number, and let n + n be an even number. Therefore, n + n = n + n, which shows that the sum of an odd number and itself is even.
D) Every time you add an odd number and itself, the sum is an even number. Every time you add an odd number and itself, the sum is an even number.
