Chapter 6.7, Problem 2QE
Program Plan Intro
Inconsistent statement:
A system of statement is inconsistent if all the statements are not true at the same time. The statements in inconsistent system of statements are self-contradictory in nature.
Consistent statements:
In consistent system of statements all statement must be true at the same time.

- Determine the validity of the ff. proof: Theorem: "the sum of any two rational numbers is a rational number" Proof: "Proof: Suppose r and s are rational numbers. By definition of rational, r = a/b for some integers a and b with b + 0, and s = a/b for some integers a and b with b + 0. Then 2a a r+s ==+ b b a - = b Let p = 2a. Then p is an integer since it is a prod- uct of integers. Hence r+s = p/b, where p and b are integers and b + 0. Thus r+ s is a rational number by definition of rational.
