- Tanslate each of these statements into logical expressions using predicates, quan-tifiers, and logical connectives. A) Not all cats can jump high. Assume the domain is all animals. B) Some cats hate all dogs. Assume the domain is all animals. C) No drivers obey the speed limit if they are in a hurry. Assume the domain is allpeople.arrow_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_forwardFor 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_forward
- Define the following predicates: • A(x) : x is on the board of directors." • E(x) : x earns more than $100, 000. • W(x) : x works more than 60 hours per week. The domain is the set of all employees of a certain company. Match each English statement with its equivalent logical expression. ? v 1. Everyone who works more than 60 hours per week earns more than $100,000. A. 3x(E(x) ^ ¬W(x)) B. Vx(W(x) → E(x)) C. Ex(¬A(x) → E(x)) D. Vx(W(x) ^ E(x)) E. 3x(¬A(x) ^ E(x)) F. 3x(A(x) ^ ¬E(x)^ W(x)) G. Ex(A(x) V ¬E(x) V W(x)) H. Vx(A(x) → E(x)) I. Vx(A(x) ^ E(x)) 2 v 2. Someone on the board of directors does not earn more that $100.000 and works more than 60 hours per week. ? v 3. Every member of the board of directors earns more than $100,000. 2. v 4. There is someone who is not on the board of directors and earns more than $100,000. ? v 5. There is someone who earns more than $100,000, but does not work more than 60 hours per week.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(2) If ¬L is context free, then L must also be context free.

- Exhibit the structure of the following statements by transforming them into a first-order formula,indicating the interpretation of predicates and the domain. For example the statement There isno greatest integer can be transformed into ¬∃x, ∀y, P(x, y) where P(x, y) is the predicate x ≥ y,the domain being the integers.Do not try to prove them (it may not be possible!).1. Every integer can be written as the sum of 2 squares.2. Every positive real number has a square root.3. The cosine function has zeroes.4. The cosine function has at least two distinct zeroes.5. There is a neutral element1for multiplication in real numbers.6. Every odd square can be written as the sum of three odd numbers.arrow_forwardQuestion 7 PS:Please choose the right answer only.arrow_forward3. Let S(x) be the statement "x studied for the exam" and H(x, y) be the statement "x scored higher than y in the exam," where the domain of x and y consists of all students in this class. Which logical expression corresponds to the following statement? "Every student in this class who studied for the exam scored higher in the exam than every student who did not study for the exam." a. VxVy (H (x, y) → (S(x) ^ ¬S(y))) b. VxVy(S(x)^¬S(y) ^ H (x, y)) c. VxVy((S(x) ^ ¬S(y)) → H (x, y)) d. VxVy((S(x) → ¬S(y)) → H (x, y))arrow_forward
