Proof: Algebra 3
Let's prove the following theorem:
if the following are true:
- x = 12
- d = (x ⋅ 2) + 1
then d = 25
Proof:
Given
1 | x = 12 |
---|---|
2 | d = (x ⋅ 2) + 1 |
# | Claim | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | x ⋅ 2 = 12 ⋅ 2 | if x = 12, then x ⋅ 2 = 12 ⋅ 2 |
2 | (x ⋅ 2) + 1 = (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 | if x ⋅ 2 = 12 ⋅ 2, then (x ⋅ 2) + 1 = (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 |
3 | d = (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 | if d = (x ⋅ 2) + 1 and (x ⋅ 2) + 1 = (12 ⋅ 2) + 1, then d = (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 |
4 | (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 = 25 | (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 = 25 |
5 | d = 25 | if d = (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 and (12 ⋅ 2) + 1 = 25, then d = 25 |
