Prove that there is no positive integer n so that 25 < n^2 < 36. Prove this by directly proving the negation.Your proof must only use integers, inequalities and elementary logic. You may use that inequalities are preserved by adding a number on both sides,or by multiplying both sides by a positive number. You cannot use the square root function. Do not write a proof by contradiction.

Let n be an integer, with n ≥ 2. Prove by contradiction that if n is not a prime number, then n is divisible by an integer x with 1 < x ≤√n. [Note: An integer m is divisible by another integer n if there exists a third integer k such that m = nk. This is just a formal way of saying that m is divisible by n if m n is an integer.]
