Answer:

The correct option is the first:

∃ an integer d such that 6d is an integer and d ≠ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6d is an integer, then d = 3

Let's divide the statement into two:

Let "If 6d is an integer" be p and "then d = 3" be q.

The statement is a conditional statement. Therefore, we have

p ⇒ q

The negation of p ⇒q, ¬(p ⇒ q) ≡ p ∧ ¬q

I have attached an image proving the above.

Using this: ¬(p ⇒ q) ≡ p ∧ ¬q

Then, we leave p as it is and negate q.

P is "if 6d is an integer"

q is "then d = 3," hence ¬q is "then d ≠ 3."

Therefore, the negation of "If 6d is an integer, then d = 3" is "If 6d is an integer, then d ≠ 3."

The correct option is the first:

∃ an integer d such that 6d is an integer and d ≠ 3
