- EXAMPLE: The sum of any two even integers is even. Answer: Proof. (direct) Suppose x and y are even integers. By definition of even, let x = 2k and y = 2j for some integers j and k. Then, x+y=2k+2j = 2(k + j) Note that k+j is an integer because it is the sum of integers. Therefore, by definition of even, x + y is even.arrow_forward6.
