Show that the argument is valid, indicating the rule of inference or logical equivalence applicable to each step.


∃x ( C(x) ∧ ( ¬ S(x) → ( V(x) ∨ W(x) ) ) )
∀x ( V(x) → ¬ C(x) )
¬ ∃x ( W(x) ∧ C(x) )
∴ ∃x ( S(x) ∧ ¬ W(x) )

4 Inference proofs Use laws of equivalence and inference rules to show how you can derive the conclusions from the given premises. Be sure to cite the rule used at each line and the line numbers of the hypotheses used for each rule. a) Givens: 1 a∧b 2 c → ¬a 3 c∨d Conclusion: d b) Givens 1 p→(q∧r) 2 ¬r Conclusion ¬p

If it is raining, then I stay home and go to work. If I go to work, then I do not stay home. I go to work. Therefore, it is not raining. Symbolize the following argument in propositional logic, then show the argument form is valid by constructing a proof that cites every inference rule and propositional logical equivalence used. Let r = it is raining; s = I stay home; and, w = I go to work.

Use symbols to write the logical form of each of the following arguments. Then state whether or not the argument is valid. If it is valid, state which of the following rules of inference apply (Modus Ponens - Method of Affirming, Modus Tollens - Method of Denying, Generalization, Specialization, Elimination, Transitivity, or Division by Cases). If the argument is not valid, state whether the Inverse error or Converse error was made. a) if n is an integer, then n is...

Is the following argument valid? (Carefully express it in propositional logic, and use the proper rules of inference at each step. You can score well in the GMAT only if you have good analytical skills. Every student who takes Discrete Math has good analytical skills or good memory. Tom doesn’t have good analytical skill. Therefore, if Tom takes Discrete Math, then Tom will score well in the GMAT.
