Chapter 6
Predict Whether a Sum or Difference Is Odd or Even
3:01
Predict Whether a Sum or Difference Is Odd or Even
You'll learn: Even ± even and odd ± odd give even; even ± odd gives odd.
Chapter 6
Use Odd and Even Counts to Track Bulb Toggles
3:03
Use Odd and Even Counts to Track Bulb Toggles
You'll learn: A bulb toggled an even number of times returns to its start; an odd number flips it.

Chapter 6
Why Does One Even Factor Make a Product Even?
2:57
Why Does One Even Factor Make a Product Even?
You'll learn: Counting grid squares shows that one even factor makes the whole product even.
Chapter 6
Why Is a Product of Odd Numbers Always Odd?
3:13
Why Is a Product of Odd Numbers Always Odd?
You'll learn: A product of odd numbers is always odd, because no factor of 2 appears.
Parity of expressions
2 videos
Chapter 6
Use 2n and 2n + 1 to Explain an Expression's Parity
2:59
Use 2n and 2n + 1 to Explain an Expression's Parity
You'll learn: Write numbers as 2n or 2n + 1 to see when an expression is even or odd for every input.
Chapter 6
Can an Incomplete Sequence Support a Parity Claim?
3:15
Can an Incomplete Sequence Support a Parity Claim?
You'll learn: Checking a few cases is not enough; a parity claim needs the complete sequence or a general argument.
