1. Write each of the statements using variables and quantifiers:
a) Some integers are perfect squares.
b) Every rational number is a real number.
2. Let P(x) = "x has shoes", Q(x) = "x has a shirt", and R(x,y) = "x is served by y". The universe of x is people. Rewrite the following predicates in words:
a) ∀x∃y [(¬P(x) ∧ Q(x)) ⇒ ¬R(x,y)]
b) ∃x∃y [(¬P(x) ∧ Q(x)) ∧ R(x,y)]
c) P("Bill" ) ∨ (Q("Jim") ∧ ¬Q("Bill")) ⇒ R("Bill","Jim")
I(x) = x is an integer
P(x) = x is a perfect square
R(x) = x is a rational number
L(x) = x is a real number

3. Rewrite each of the following proposition using quantifiers, predicates and variables. Make sure that you clearly define the predicates, variables and domains. There exists a program that gives the correct answer to every question that is posed to it. a. b. For all integers m and n, if m'n is even then either m is even or n is even
true and false propositions with quantifiers. Answer the following questions in the space provided below. 1. For each proposition below, first determine its truth value, then negate the proposition and simplify (using De Morgan's laws) to eliminate all – symbols. All variables are from the domain of integers. (a) 3.0, x2 <. (b) Vr, ((x2 = 0) + (0 = 0)). (c) 3. Vy (2 > 0) (y >0 <y)). 2. Consider the predicates defined below. Take the domain to...
Answer the following questions in the space provided below. 1. For each proposition below, first determine its truth value, then negate the proposition and simplify (using DeMorgan's laws) to eliminate all – symbols. All variables are from the domain of integers. (a) 3x, 22 <2. (b) Vx, ((:22 = 0) + (x = 0)). (e) 3xWy((x > 0) (y > 0 + x Sy)). 2. Consider the predicates defined below. Take the domain to be the positive integers. P(x): x...
5. (2 point) For each of the following statements, write it in symbolic form using quantifiers. Then, determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. (a) Each integer has the property that its square is less than or equal to its cube. (b) Every subset of N has the number 3 as an element. (c) There is a real number that is strictly bigger than every integer.
9. Prove that the following kogical expressions aro logically equivalent by applying the law of logic 10. Give a logical expression with variables p, q, and r that's true only if p and q are false and r is true. 11. Predicates P and Q are defined below. The domain of discourse is the set of all positive integers. P(x): x is prime Qlx): x is a perfect square Are the following logical expressions propositions? If the answer is yes,...
6. Fix b (a) If m, n, p, q are integers, n > 0, q > 0, and r = mln-plg, prove that Hence it makes sense to define y (b")1/n. (b) Prove that b… = b,b" if r and s are rational. (c) If x is real, define B(x) to be the set of all numbers b', where t is rational and tSx. Prove that b-sup B(r) ris rational. Hence it b" = sup B(x) for every realx (d)...
#7. TRUE/FALSE. Determine the truth value of each sentence (no explanation required). ________(a) k in Z k2 + 9 = 0. ________(b) m, n in N, 5m 2n is in N. ________(c) x in R, if |x − 2| < 3, then |x| < 5. #8. For each statement, (i) write the statement in logical form with appropriate variables and quantifiers, (ii) write the negation in logical form, and (iii) write the negation in a clearly worded unambiguous English sentence....

Module outcome #3: Translate prose with quantified statements to symbolic negation of quantified statements. (CO #1) (a.) Negate the statement and simplify so that no quantifier or connective lies within the scope of a negation: (Bx)(y)-P(x.y) AQ(x, y)) (b.) Consider the domain of people working at field site Huppaloo, Let M(xx): x has access to mailbox y. Translate into predicate logic...
