Question
∀x,p(x) is read asFor every x∈U,p(x) isfalseFor every x∈p(x) is trueFor every x∈U,p(x) is trueFor every p(x) is true
Solution
The statement "∀x, p(x)" in logic is read as "For every x, p(x) is true". This means that the predicate p(x) holds true for all elements x in the universe of discourse U. If p(x) is false for any x in U, then the statement "∀x, p(x)" would be false.
