For all integers a, there exists an integer b such that 3 divides a+b and 3 divides 2a+b.
I think it is false and the negation will be: There exists an integer a such that for all integers b, 3 does not divide a+b or 3 doesn't divide 2a+b.
How can I choose a to prove the negation?
Answer
Let a=1, if 3 divides 1+b and 3 divides 2+b.
Then 3 must divide 2+b−(1+b)=1 which is a contradiction.
