Question

Transcribed Image Text:**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.
