- Use truth tables to verify the following logical equivalences. Include a few words of explanation with your answers. (a) p- q = mp V a P9 ~p ~p V q F F F FTT OF F FF F The truth table shows that p - q and p V q always do not always have the same truth values. Therefore they are are not logically equivalent.arrow_forward• Convert the following statements to symbols. Use a truth table to show that the statement is a tautology. 1.

Write each statement in symbolic form, and use truth tables to determine if they are logically equivalent: (define any variables you use) A: If you study hard and do all homework, then you will pass the class.

Domain-restricted universal quantification is logically equivalent to the unrestricted universal quantification of a conditional. C. (p → a) v (p → →q) is a tautology. D. The negation of a conjunction is the disjunction of the negations. E. Inverse and converse are logically equivalent. F. A conditional is false when both premise and conclusion are false. G.

- Determine whether the logical statement is a tautology, a contradiction or neither: (p→q) → (p v q). [Hint: Use a truth table with 4 rows; you need to check the last row; all T is a tautology: all F is a contradition; a mixture of T and F is neither.] Example statement: If adopting new software leads to savings, then we'll either adopt new software or save money. The parentheses fit in the statement like this: If (adopting new software leads to savings), then (we'll either adopt new software or save money). This interpretation gives adopting new software leads to savings = If we adopt new software, then we'll save money O a. Tautology O b. Neither Oc.
