Find the negation of the proposition

murzikaleks [220]

In accordance with propositional logic, quantifier theory and definitions of simple and composite propositions, the negation of a implication has the following equivalence:

$\neg (\exists \,x\, (P(x) \implies Q(x))) \iff \forall \,x (\neg \,Q(x) \,\land \,P(x))$ (Correct choice: iii)

<h3>How to find the equivalent form of a proposition</h3>

Herein we have a composite proposition, that is, the union of monary and binary operators and simple propositions. According to propositional logic and quantifier theory, the negation of an implication is equivalent to:

$\neg (\exists \,x\, (P(x) \implies Q(x))) \iff \forall \,x (\neg \,Q(x) \,\land \,P(x))$
