**Determine whether the proposed negation is correct. If it is not, write a correct negation.**

---

**Statement:** The product of any irrational number and any rational number is irrational.

**Proposed negation:** The product of any irrational number and any rational number is rational.

---
1. ⃝ The proposed negation is correct.

2. ⃝ The proposed negation is not correct. A possible correct negation would be: There is an irrational number and a rational number whose product is rational.

3. ⃝ The proposed negation is not correct. A possible correct negation would be: There is not an irrational number and a rational number whose product is rational.

4. ⃝ The proposed negation is not correct. A possible correct negation would be: There exists an irrational product of an irrational number and a rational number.

5. ⃝ The proposed negation is not correct. A possible correct negation would be: There does not exist an irrational product of any irrational number and any rational number.
