Question

Decide whether or not the following propositions are true or false. Justify each of
your conclusions with a proof or a counterexample.

(d) ∃x ∈ R ¬(x 2 < 36)
(e) ¬∀x ∈ R (x 2 < 36)
(f) ∀x ∈ R ¬(x 2 < 36)

Expert Solution
Step 1

(d) ∃x ∈ R ¬(x2 < 36)

     ≈ ∃x ∈ R (x2 ≥ 36)

     Consider any x ≥6 or x ≤ -6

     Then, x≥ 36 => ¬(x2 < 36) becomes true. 

     For example, for x = 7, x= 49 > 36

     Hence, the given proposition is True. [Ans]
