Am I properly negating the definition of this set?
The statement:
Let $Asubset mathbb{R}$ be defined as follows: $xin A$ if and only if there exists $c>0$ so that
$$ |x-j2^{-k}|geq c2^{-k} $$
holds for all $jin mathbb{Z}$ and integers $kgeq 0$.
The negation of the above statement:
$xin A^{c}$ if and only if for all $c>0$, we have that
$$ |x-j2^{-k}|<c2^{-k} $$
holds for all $jin mathbb{Z}$ and integers $kgeq 0$.

'For all' becomes 'there exists' and 'there exists' becomes 'for all'; so you should say for some $jin mathbb Z$ and some integer $k geq 0$.

'For all' becomes 'there exists' and 'there exists' becomes 'for all'; so you should say for some $jin mathbb Z$ and some integer $k geq 0$.
