Let p be: John goes to the beach

Let q be: He will go surfing.

Then in symbolic form, the argument becomes:

\begin{gathered} p\Rightarrow q \\ p \\ ----------- \\ \therefore q \end{gathered}

p ⇒ q

p

---------------------

∴ q

An argument is valid if the conjuction of the premises implies the conclusion.

p | q | p ⇒ q | (p ⇒ q) ∧ p | [(p ⇒ q) ∧ p] ⇒ q

---------------------------------------------------------------------\

F | F | T | F | T

F | T | T | F | T

T | F | F | F | T

T | T | T | T | T

The table above shows that the argument is a tautology.

Hence, the argument is valid

Help me solve this problem please
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

15-2(x+5)=25

multiply the 2 by the x and 5 and you get

15-2x-10=25

since the 15 and the negative 10 are on the same side you add them together and get

5 -2x= 25

-5       -5

-2x =20

Then divide the -2/20= -10
