Needing help with #1, please explain.
1. For all integers m, if m > 2 then m^2-4 is composite.
2. If m and n are positive integers and mn is a perfect square then m and n are perfect squares.
3. The difference of the squares of any two consecutive integers is odd.
Write statements 1,2 and 3 below as quantified logical statements, using the universal and existential quantifiers, and defining predicates as needed.
1. mZ ...
P(x) is the predicate x is a perfect square
2. mZ+nZ+(p(mn) (p(m)p(n))
P(x) is the predicate k=(n+1)2n2, where k is odd
3. xZ(p(x))
Second, write the negations of each of these statements in the same way.
1. ...
2. mZ+nZ+(p(mn)(~p(m)(~p(m))
3. xZ(~p(x))
