None:

a and b are both even. take a and b as any even integers to disprove the statements

A. a/2 = 4/2= 2
B. b/2= 8/2 =4
C. (a+b)/2 = 12/2 = 6
D. (a+2)/2 = (2+2)/2 = 4/2= 2
E. (b+2)/2= 6+2/2 = 8/2 = 4

hi,

I would like to differ on this
My answer would be both D and E

a=8 b=4

a)a/2=8/2=4
b)b/2=4/2=2
c)(a+b)/2=(8+4)/2=12/2=6
d)(a+2)/2=(8+2)/2=10/2=5(odd)
e)(b+2)/2=(4+2)/2=6/2=3(odd)

Hope u agree with me

Since the question asks "must be true" its advisable to take two sets of values and work on it..

For example, take a=4 b=2 and a=8 and b=4 which are simple numbers which satisfy the condition stated in the question..

Substitute both of these values in each answer choice and you would find that only option (D) agrees to it..So the answer is (D)..Whats the OA?
