解析
Recall that a prime number is an integer greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself.
The answer choices for this question are integer values of n. Any of the answer choices for which the integer 4n + 3 is
not
a prime number could be used to disprove the conjecture that for any integer n, the integer An + 3 is a prime number.
To answer this question, you must determine for each of the answer choices whether the integer 4n + 3 is a prime number. The evaluations are as follows:
Choice A: For n=1, the integer 4n + 3 is 4(1)+ 3, or 7, which is a prime number.
Choice B: For n = 3, the integer 4n + 3 is 4(3)+ 3, or 15, which is not a prime number.
Choice C: For n = 4, the integer An + 3 is 4(4)+ 3, or 19, which is a prime number.
Choice D: For n = 6, the integer An + 3 is 4(6)+ 3, or 27, which is not a prime number.
Choice E: For n = 7, the integer 4n + 3 is 4(7)+ 3, or 31, which is a prime number.
Therefore, of the answer choices, only Choices B and D, that is, n = 3 and n = 6, result in integers 4n + 3 that are not prime numbers. Thus, the correct answer consists of Choices B and D.
