Avg difficulty 2.5

Consider the statement, “There is a building on the campus of some college in the United States in which every room is painted white.”

  1. Express the statement using quantifiers. Be sure to define your predicate function and specify the domain of each of the three variables.
  2. Express the negation of the above logical quantified statement so that no negation is to the left of a quantifier.
  3. Write the negation of the statement in plain English.
