Question

If 3y+2 is an odd integer then what is the odd integer that follows it

Answer 1

3y + 4

Explanation:

All odd integers are 2 units appart.Take for example the odd integers: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, they all are 2 units apart from the next odd integer. Therefore, if 3y + 2 is an odd integer, then the next odd integer is 3y + 2 + 2 = 3y + 4. For example, if y = 1 , then the first odd integer is 3(1) + 2 = 5, and the odd integer that follows it is 3(1) + 4 = 7
