Q46 of 113 Page 110

State whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

If x is an even number, then the next even number is 2(x + 1).

False

we know that even numbers are 2,4,6,8,10,12,….so on.


here we see that –


⇒ first even number is 2


⇒ then next is (2 + 2) = 4


⇒ then (4 + 2) = 6


⇒ then (6 + 2) = 8


⇒ so we can say that if ‘x’ is an even number then next even number be (x + 2).


⇒ Hence, it is not true.
