If you were going to use a proof by contradiction to prove the following theorem, which of these would be the appropriate assumption to make? For all integers m and n, if m + n is even then m and n are both even or m and n are both odd. There are two integer m and n, such that m+n is even and either m is even and n is odd or m is odd and n is even. There are two integer m and n, such that if m+n is odd then m and n are both odd and m and n are both even. For all integers m and n, if m+n is odd then m and n are both even and m and n are both odd. O For all integers m and n, if m+n is odd then either m is even and n is odd or m is odd and n is even.
