The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following statements is not a proposition, we first need to understand what a proposition is. A proposition is a declarative statement that can be classified as either true or false, but not both. Let's analyze the options provided: 1. **7 is a prime number.** - This statement is a proposition because it can be evaluated as true (since 7 is indeed a prime number). 2. **√3 is irrational.** - This statement is also a proposition because it can be evaluated as true (the square root of 3 cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers). 3. **Mathematics is interesting.** - This statement is not a proposition because it is subjective. Whether mathematics is interesting or not can vary from person to person. Thus, it cannot be definitively classified as true or false. 4. **5 is an even integer.** - This statement is a proposition because it can be evaluated as false (5 is an odd integer). Based on this analysis, the statement that is not a proposition is: **Answer: Option 3 - "Mathematics is interesting."**
