True. Every element in set P is even.
"All elements in set Q are prime."
False. 9 and 1 are not prime.

True. The elements 2 and 4 make this statement true, since 2 * 2 = 4, 2 * 4 = 8, and both 4 and 8 are less than 10.
"There is at least one element y in Q, where y equals its square."
True. 1 = 1
2

"For all x in P, there exists some y in Q such that x + 1 < y."
False. This works for all elements in P except 10 (since 10 + 1 = 11, but is not less than 11).
