Answer: The given logical equivalence is proved below.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to use truth tables to show the following logical equivalence :

P ⇔ Q ≡ (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P)

We know that

two compound propositions are said to be logically equivalent if they have same corresponding truth values in the truth table.

The truth table is as follows :

P Q ∼P ∼Q P⇔ Q ∼P ∨ Q ∼Q ∨ P (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P)

T T F F T T T T

T F F T F F T F

F T T F F T F F

F F T T T T T T

Since the corresponding truth vales for P ⇔ Q and (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P) are same, so the given propositions are logically equivalent.

Thus, P ⇔ Q ≡ (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P).

Graph the line whose y-intercept is - 9 and whose x-intercept is 5.

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

y=1.8x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are intercepts so the x/y will be zero, so in y intetceot the x is zero, and in the x itercept the y is zero.

0,-9

5,0

we calculate the slooe / rise

-9-0/0-5 = 1.8

we then use this formula

y-y1=rise(x-x1)

y-0=1.8(x-5)

y=1.8x-9

Find the equation of the line that passes through (1, -1) and is parallel to

daser333 [38]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

$2x+y-3=0\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-2} x+3 \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so we're really looking for the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and that passes through (1 , -1)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{-2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{1}) \\\\\\ y+1=-2x+2\implies y=-2x+1$
