By dragging statements from the left column to the right column below, construct a valide proof of the statement: For any integer n, if n is even, then 17n is even. The correct proof will use 3 of the statements below. Statements to choose from: Since 17 is odd and the product of an odd number and an odd number is odd, 17n must be even. Let n be an arbitrary integer and assume 17n is odd. Let n be an arbitrary integer and assume n is even. n must be even. Let n be an arbitrary integer and assume 17n is even. Since the product of any number with an even number is even, Since an even number divided by 17 must be odd, 17n must be odd. Your Proof: Put chosen statements in order in this column and press the Submit Answers button.
