  1. Statement: "Some movies are too long."
    Negation: No movies are too long.

  2. Statement: "Some dogs go to heaven."
    Negation: No dogs go to heaven.
    Explanation: The original statement claims that there exists at least one dog that goes to heaven. The negation would be that there are no dogs that go to heaven.

  3. Statement: "No dogs are beagles."
    Negation: Some dogs are beagles.
    Explanation: The original statement claims that there are no dogs that are beagles. The negation would be that there exists at least one dog that is a beagle.

  4. Statement: "All flowers smell nice."
    Negation: Some flowers do not smell nice.
    Explanation: The original statement claims that every flower smells nice. The negation would be that there exists at least one flower that does not smell nice.

In summary, the negations are:

An editorial criticized a chart caption that described a dental floss as one that "reduces the chance of plaque on teeth by over 350 percent." What is wrong with this statement? Choose the correct answer below. A. The statement does not mention the initial amount of plaque. B. If plaque fell by 100%, it would be cut in half. Thus, a decrease of 200% means that it would be totally eliminated, and a decrease of more than 200% is impossible. C. The actual amount of the decrease in plaque is less than 100%. D. A reduction of 100% would eliminate all plaque, so it is not possible to reduce it by more than 100%.

A sample of a radioactive substance has an initial mass of 62.3 mg. This substance follows a continuous exponential decay model and has a half-life of 22 hours. (a) Let t be the time (in hours) since the start of the experiment, and let y be the amount of the substance at time t. Write a formula relating y to t. Use exact expressions to fill in the missing parts of the formula. Do not use approximations. y= 62.3 * (1/2)^(t/22) (b) How much will be present in 13 hours? Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answer to the nearest tenth. 41.4 mg
