Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

1)

So we have:


\exists x\in\mathbb{N},y\in\mathbb{Z}|x^2=y^2

This can be interpreted as:

"There exists a natural number x and an integer y such that x² is equal to y²."

2)

So we want even numbers are in the set of integers.


\{2n:n\in\mathbb{Z}\}\in\mathbb{Z}

This is interpreted as:

"The set of even numbers (2n such that n is an integer) is in the set of integers"
