Question

Find the truth set of each predicate.

Answer 1

The truth set for each predicate are:

a) d ∈ { -6, -3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3, 6}

b) d ∈ {  1, 2, 3, 6}

c) x ∈ { [-2, -1] U [1, 2]}

d) x ∈ {-2, -1, 1, 2}

How to find the truth set of each predicate?

We only need to find the sets of values such that the statements are true.

a)

We want to find vales of d, such that d is an integer, and 6/d is an integer.

Here the possible values of d will be:

d ∈ { -6, -3, -2, -1, 1, 2, 3, 6}

Which are all the factors of 6, so all these integers divide 6.

b) Same as before, but this time the domain is a positive integer, so now the truth set will be:

d ∈ {  1, 2, 3, 6}

c) We want to find real values of x such that:

1 ≤ x² ≤ 4

If we apply the square root to the 3 sides, we get two inequalities:

-√1 ≥ x ≥ -√4

√1 ≤ x ≤ √4

Simplifying:

-1  ≥ x ≥ -2

1  ≤ x ≤ 2

So the truth set is:

x ∈ { [-2, -1] U [1, 2]}

c) Same as before, but now we only have integer solutions, so the truth set is:

x ∈ {-2, -1, 1, 2}
