(5 pоints fоr the cоrrect аnswer; 1.5 bonus points if you hаve correctly аnswered 7 out of questions 1 through 7 and question 9.) Which is the negation of the following statement      

(Answer аny fоur questiоns—eаch cоrrect аnswer is worth 3 points. You will earn 1 bonus point for each additional correct answer beyond the required four.) Consider the arguments below. If the argument is valid, identify its logical form. Otherwise, indicate whether the converse or inverse error is made. (1)  The real number is greater than 2 and is greater than 8.       Therefore, is greater than 8.  [a1] (2)  If this graph can be colored with three colors, then it can be colored with four colors.        The graph can be colored with four colors.           Therefore, the graph can be colored with three colors.  [a2]  (3)  If this graph can be colored with three colors, then it can be colored with four colors.       The graph can be colored with three colors.          Therefore, the graph can be colored with four colors.  [a3] (4)  The real number is greater than 4 or  is less than 2.         is less than 2.        Therefore, is greater than 4.  [a4] (5)   If the real number is greater than 2, then  is positive.            If is positive, then  exists.          Therefore, if is greater than 2, then  exists. [a5] (6)    is a rational number.         is positive.        Therefore, is a positive rational number.  [a6] (Hint: It is helpful to write each argument in a symbolic form.)

(Answer аny fоur questiоns—eаch cоrrect аnswer is worth 3 points. You will earn 1 bonus point for each additional correct answer beyond the required four.) Consider the arguments below. If the argument is valid, identify its logical form. Otherwise, indicate whether the converse or inverse error is made. (1)  If integer  is divisible by 4, then  is even. Integer  is divisible by 4.        Therefore,  is even.  [a1] (2)  If integer  is divisible by 4, then  is even. Integer  is not even.           Therefore,  is not divisible by 4.  [a2]  (3) Integer  is divisible by 4. Therefore  is divisible by 4 or is an odd integer. [a3] (4) Integer  is divisible by 4 and integer  is divisible by 3.       Therefore,  is divisible by 4.  [a4] (5) If integer  is divisible by 4, then is an even integer. is not divisible by 4.        Therefore,   is not an even integer. [a5] (6) If integer  is divisible by 4, then is divisible by 2.       If is divisible by 2, then  is an even integer.       Therefore,  is divisible by 4, then is an even integer.
