Prove the folllwing case and use the Contrapositive approach to the proof.

If n^2 + 2 is not divisible by 3, then n is divisible by 3.

First state the contrapositive before you begin the proof.

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.
