The correct Answer is:
To symbolize the statement "There exists at least one number in A={5,7,8,9,10} which is an even number," we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Set We have the set \( A = \{5, 7, 8, 9, 10\} \). ### Step 2: Define the Variable Let \( x \) be a number in the set \( A \). ### Step 3: Define the Property We need to express that \( x \) is an even number. A number \( x \) is even if there exists an integer \( n \) such that \( x = 2n \). ### Step 4: Formulate the Existence Statement The statement "There exists at least one number in A which is even" can be symbolized using the existential quantifier \( \exists \). We can write this as: \[ \exists x \in A \text{ such that } x \text{ is even} \] In mathematical notation, this can be expressed as: \[ \exists x \in A, \, (x \text{ is even}) \] ### Step 5: Specify the Even Condition To specify the condition of being even, we can write: \[ \exists x \in A, \, (x = 2n \text{ for some integer } n) \] ### Final Symbolized Statement Thus, the complete symbolized statement is: \[ \exists x \in A, \, (x = 2n \text{ for some integer } n) \]
