/sci/ can't prove that all even numbers can be represented as the sum of two primes
2 = 1 + 1
4 = 3 + 1
6 = 5 + 1
Etc.
Solved by induction

Isn't one excluded from the set of all prime numbers?
>>8954279
If so then OP is a cum-guzzling faget who can't even bait correctly
>>8954280
Not OP, but is this sum of two primes thing one of those theorems that can't be proven?
I have discovered a truly remarkable proof of this theorem which this post's character limit is too small to contain.
>>8954284
It's the Goldbach conjecture and it's for all even numbers greater than 2.
I don't know if it can't be proven, but it hasn't been proven yet.

Doesn't work for 10 senpai.
10 = 9 + 1
9 isn't prime.

>>8954284
why can't it be proven
it seems pretty easy to prove it by contradiction r something
>>8954270
0 is even, and cannot be represented as a sum of prime numbers.
Checkmate, queer.
>>8954318
Then do it

Obviously OP meant even numbers greater than 2, you homophobic cretin.

Check out the sociologist
/sci/ can't prove every odd number greater than 5 is the sum of a prime number and a double of a prime.
7 = 3 + 2 * 2
9 = 5 + 2 * 2
11 = 5 + 3 * 2
13 = 3 + 5 * 2
etc.

I actually have proved this on toilet paper while drunk.
Unfortunately I used the paper and could not recognize anything written on it in the morning.

You can't write 2 as the sum of two primes.

p+q=2 where p and q are primes

>>8954280
Well he's right that we cannot prove a false statement
>>8954270
I can if you allow prime numbers to be negative
