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

For what values of x will the function f(x) = 3x² + 13x - 10 equal zero?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

x = - 5 , x = \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

the values of x that make f(x) zero are the zeros

to find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

3x² + 13x - 10 = 0

consider the factors of the product of  the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 3 × - 10 = - 30 and sum = + 13

the factors are + 15 and - 2

use these factors to split the x- term

3x² + 15x - 2x - 10 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3x(x + 5) - 2(x + 5) = 0 ← factor out (x + 5) from each term

(x + 5)(3x - 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 2 ⇒ x = \frac{2}{3}
