- 2. For the following wffs, indicate which variables are free and which are bound (you can use 'F' for free and 'B' for bound.) Either (i) draw a vertical line underneath each variable with the letters 'F' or 'B' at the bottom of each vertical line or (ii) color the bound variables red and the free variables green. Make sure you know which symbols are variables. Not every symbol in the language of predicate logic is a variable. The reading (Scope, binding, and quantifier expansions) lists the symbols that are variables and the symbols that are names of objects (i.e., individual constants). Names of objects are not variables. You can also write the wffs on a piece of paper and submit a photo of it. (a) (Ex) (y) (z) ((Ayz --> Bzzy) v (Fxac --> Hzzu)) (b) (х) (у) Нууу --> (2) (Fzy v Hxх) (c) (Ez) (x) (у) (Ахyzbbw v Bxуcdvz)arrow_forward(2) Let P (x, y) : x plays in y." A(x) : x is athletic."

(a) Write the symbolic for: Some smart and athletic players play in some English league teams (b) Write the English for: 3y A(MohamedSalah) ^ E(y) ^ P (MohamedSalah, y).

S is the proposition "You like to swim." W is the proposition "You drink water." H is the proposition "You are human." Write the following propositions symbolically using the above variables: (a) If you are human then you like to swim. (b) If you like to swim then you are a fish. 1 (c) If you do not like to swim then you do not drink water. (d) If you are a human then either you are a fish or you drink water. (e) You are a fish, you do not drink water, and you like to swim.arrow_forward
- Is (X and Y) or (Z and W) a tautology? Tautology means for any assignment, the formula evaluates to true. Yes O Noarrow_forwardI will thumbs up if you answer all. please convert FOL to CNF Convert each of the following English statements into a single first-order logic sentence using the following constants and predicates. •Constants: Apples, Oranges, Chess, Go, John, Mary. •Predicates: oLikes(x,y): person x likes food y oPlays(x,y): person x plays game y a.If a personlikesApples, then they play chess. b.If a person likesOranges, then they play Go. c.A person likesApples or Oranges, but not both. d.John likes apples. e.Mary does not like anything that John likes. and then: Convert each of the first-order logic sentences in Problem 2to conjunctive normal form (CNF). There is no need to show intermediate steps. Assign each clause number: C1, C2, etc.arrow_forwardDetermine if the following statements are logically equivalent:p ∨ (q ∧ r),(p ∧ q) ∨ (p ∧ r)Variables: p,q,rarrow_forward
- 1. Let p, q, and r be the statementsp: I finish my assignment before 2:00 pm todayq: I go to the gym todayr: It is raining today (a) Invent a compound statement that uses all three of the proposi-tions p, q, and r as well as whatever logical connectives you choose. (b) Write an English sentence that corresponds to the statement youconstructed in (a). (c) Make a truth table for the statement you constructed in (a).arrow_forwardConsider the following statement: Statement A: ∀ integers m and n, if 2m + n is odd then m and n are both odd. Disprove Statement A. That is, show that Statement A is falsearrow_forward2. Determine the truth value of each of these statements if the domain of each variable consists of all real numbers. If true, give a brief explanation for why. If false, give a counterexample (i.e. a set of values x,y that make the statement false. You must also explain why they make the statement false.) a) yvx((y > x²) → y > x) b) Vy!x(√√ 0)) d) x(x < 0⇒x² ≥y) e) \xy(x² = y² ↔ y³ = x³)arrow_forward
- For each of the following statements, determine whether they are true or false. If false, write their logical negation (distributing the ¬ across any expressions as necessary) and explain how this negation is true. In each of these, x and y are assumed to be integers. (a) (∀x)(∀y)((y > x) ⇒ (x = 0)) (b) (∃x)(∀y)((y > x) ⇒ (x = 0)) (c) (∀x)(∃y)((y > x) ⇒ (x = 0)) (d) (∀x)(((∀y)(y > x)) ⇒ (x = 0))arrow_forwardWhich statement is NOT correct? O A. Every WFF is equivalent to a WFF in prenex normal form. B. Skolemization does not change the meaning of sentences. C. Skolemization generates equisatisfiable sentences. D. A formula in Skolem form does not have existentially quantified variables.arrow_forwardConsider the following true propositions:• p : The applicant has passed the learner permit test.• q : The applicant has passed the road test.• r : The applicant is allowed a driver’s license.For each of the following sentences write,symbolically, the compound proposition that correspondstothe given sentence in English asit is written (do not change the order or form of the expression).a) The applicant did not pass the road test but passed the learner permit test.b) If the applicant passes the learner permit test and the road test, then the applicant is allowed adriver’s license.c) Passing the learner permit test and the road test are necessary for being allowed a driver’slicense.d) The applicant passed either the learner permit test or the road test, but not both.e) It is not true that the applicant does not pass the road test and is allowed a driver’s license.arrow_forward
