Given:
child = 2 forks
adult = 5 forks
total number of forks = 2992
total number of people = 764

c + a = 764
2c + 5a = 2992

find the value of c using the 1st equation.

c = 764 - a

substitute c in the 2nd equation by its value

2c + 5a = 2992
2(764-a) + 5a = 2992

1528 - 2a + 5a = 2992
1528 + 3a = 2992
3a = 2992 - 1528
3a = 1464
3a/3 = 1464/3
a = 488

c = 764 - a
c = 764 - 488
c = 276

child = 276 ; adult = 488

2c + 5a = 2992
2(276) + 5(488) = 2992
552 + 2440 = 2992
2992 = 2992

44. Express each of these system specifications using predicates, quantifiers, and logical connectives. a) Every user has access
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

a. ∀x (User(x) → (∃y (Mailbox(y) ∧ Access(x, y))))

b. FileSystemLocked → ∀x Access(x, SystemMailbox)

c. ∀x ∀y ((Firewall(x) ∧ Diagnostic(x)) → (ProxyServer(y) → Diagnostic(y))

d. ∀x (ThroughputNormal ∧(ProxyServer(x)∧ ¬Diagnostic(x))) → (∃y Router(y)∧Functioning(y))

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  

Let the domain be users and mailboxes. Let User(x) be “x is a user”, let Mailbox(y) be “y is a mailbox”, and let Access(x, y) be “x has access to y”.  

∀x (User(x) → (∃y (Mailbox(y) ∧ Access(x, y))))  

(b)

Let the domain be people in the group. Let Access(x, y) be “x has access to y”. Let FileSystemLocked be the proposition “the file system is locked.” Let System Mailbox be the constant that is the system mailbox.  

FileSystemLocked → ∀x Access(x, SystemMailbox)  

(c)  

Let the domain be all applications. Let Firewall(x) be “x is the firewall”, and let ProxyServer(x) be “x is the proxy server.” Let Diagnostic(x) be “x is in a diagnostic state”.  

∀x ∀y ((Firewall(x) ∧ Diagnostic(x)) → (ProxyServer(y) → Diagnostic(y))  

(d)

Let the domain be all applications and routers. Let Router(x) be “x is a router”, and let ProxyServer(x) be “x is the proxy server.” Let Diagnostic(x) be “x is in a diagnostic state”. Let ThroughputNormal be “the throughput is between 100kbps and 500 kbps”. Let Functioning(y) be “y is functioning normally”.  

∀x (ThroughputNormal ∧(ProxyServer(x)∧ ¬Diagnostic(x))) → (∃y Router(y)∧Functioning(y))
