well.......Its like testing a conjecture and finding a statement true or false because u have to test it!!! to see if its true or false and its different,true is like something u can prove and false is untrue and u cant prove it. :D i know i don't make sense but that's how i explained it on my homeworklol
One possible conjecture is that their sum is 27. The conjecture is patently false, but that does not stop it being a conjecture.

Give a counter-example.
Yes.

There are only two possible outcomes in finding out whether a statement is true or false.In testing a conjecture, even one contradiction is sufficient to disprove it. However, it can never be proven. All you can do is add support to the likelihood that the conjecture is true. But there remains a possibility that some other test will prove it false.Furthermore, in view of Godel's incompleteness theorem, some conjectures cannot be proven to be true even if you can prove that their negation is false.
A conjecture should be testable. You test it and if it fails the test, it is a false conjecture.
A counter example is a statement that shows conjecture is false.
Because that is what a conjecture is! It is a proposition that has to be checked out to see f it isalways true, false or indeterminate,sometimes true, false or indeterminate,never true, false or indeterminate.Once its nature has been decided then it is no longer a conjecture.
This stament is true.
