Answer: 7, 2, 1, 5, 6, 4, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Then, 3n+4=3 (2k+1) + 4=6k+7=2 (3k+3) + 1.

2. By definition of odd, there exists integer k such that n=2k+1.

N 3. Thus, if n is odd then 3n+4 is odd or by contradiction, if 3n+4 is even then n is even,.

4. Therefore, by definition of odd, 3n+4 is odd.

5. Since k is an integer, t = 3k+3 is also an integer.

6. Thus, there exists an integer t such that 3n+4=2t+1.

7. Suppose n is odd.

8. Thus, if n is odd then 3n+4 is odd or by contraposition, if 3n+4 is even then n is even,.

N 9. Suppose 3n+4 is even.

N 10. By definition of odd, n=2k+1.

Right order:

7. Suppose n is odd.

2. By definition of odd, there exists integer k such that n = 2k+1.

1. Then, 3n+4 = 3 (2k+1) + 4 = 6k+7 = 2 (3k+3) + 1.

5. Since k is an integer, t = 3k+3 is also an integer.

6. Thus, there exists an integer t such that 3n+4 = 2t+1.

4. Therefore, by definition of odd, 3n+4 is odd.

8. Thus, if n is odd then 3n+4 is odd or by contraposition, if 3n+4 is even then n is even.
