if "2 is the only even prime number"

  • Prove using quantifiers Let P(x) = x is prime number ∃xP(x)

AND

  • Negate the statement that you have ¬∃xP(x)= ∀x(¬P(x))

Is this right?

edited: what about this? ∀n ∈ N(n is even ∧ n is prime ⇒ n=2)

There does not exist a number which all of the following are true:

  • It is even
  • It is different from 2
  • It is prime
