The correct Answer is:
To find the negation of the statement "If x is not a real number, then it is not a rational number and it is not an irrational number," we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Identify the components of the statement**: - Let \( p \) be the statement "x is not a real number." - Let \( q \) be the statement "x is not a rational number." - Let \( r \) be the statement "x is not an irrational number." The original statement can be expressed as: \[ p \implies (q \land r) \] 2. **Write the negation of the implication**: The negation of an implication \( p \implies (q \land r) \) is given by: \[ \neg(p \implies (q \land r)) \equiv p \land \neg(q \land r) \] 3. **Apply De Morgan's Law**: According to De Morgan's laws, the negation of a conjunction is the disjunction of the negations: \[ \neg(q \land r) \equiv \neg q \lor \neg r \] Therefore, we can rewrite the negation as: \[ p \land (\neg q \lor \neg r) \] 4. **Substitute back the definitions of \( p \), \( q \), and \( r \)**: Now we substitute back the definitions: - \( p \) is "x is not a real number." - \( \neg q \) is "x is a rational number." - \( \neg r \) is "x is an irrational number." Thus, the negation becomes: \[ \text{"x is not a real number"} \land \left(\text{"x is a rational number"} \lor \text{"x is an irrational number"}\right) \] 5. **Final statement**: The final negation of the original statement is: \[ \text{"x is not a real number and (x is a rational number or x is an irrational number)."} \]
