Use indirect reasoning to prove:

If Jacky spends more than $50 to buy two items at a bicycle shop, then at least one of the items costs more than $25.

Given: the cost of two items is more than $50.

Prove: At least one of the items costs more than $25.Begin by assuming that the opposite is true. That is assume that neither item costs more than $25.

Given: the cost of two items is more than $50.

Prove: At least one of the items costs more than $25.Begin by assuming that the opposite is true. That is assume that neither item costs more than $25.This means that both items cost $25 or less. This means that the two items together cost $50 or less. This contradicts the given information that the amount spent is more than $50. So the assumption that neither items cost more than $25 must be incorrect.

Writing an indirect proof

Step-1: Assume that the opposite of what you want to prove is true.

Step-2: Use logical reasoning to reach a contradiction to the earlier statement, such as the given information or a theorem. Then state that the assumption you made was false.Step-3: State that what you wanted to prove must be true
