Doug, a student in this class, knows how to write programs in JAVA. Everyone who knows how to write programs in JAVA can get a h

In-s [12.5K]

Missing Part of Question

Explain which rules of inference are used in the above

Answer:

Universal instantiation, Modus ponens and Existential generalization

Step-by-step explanation:

Splitting the Statement into two, we have

"Doug knows how to write program is Java"

and

"Doug can get a high paying job"

Represent Doug with x. Then the statements is rewritten as

P(x) = "x knows how to write program is Java"

and

Q(x) = "x can get a high paying job"

In logic, A premise is a statement in an argument that provides reason or support for the conclusion.

So, Statement 1 can be written as

1. P(x) ---- Premise

Then, we have

2. Vx(P(x) --> Q(x)) -- Premise. This mean that P(x) for all values in the domain.

The universal instantiation of (2) leads to

3. P(Doug) --> Q(Doug)

The modus ponens of the above gives

4. Q(Doug)

The existential generalisation from above gives

5. ƎxQ(x)

Which means someone in this class can get a high paying job.

PS:

Universal Instantiation is a valid rule of inference from a truth about each member of a class of individuals to the truth about a particular individual of that class; it is represented by VxP(x).

Existential Generalisation is a valid rule of inference that allows one to move from a specific statement, or one instance, to a quantified generalized statement, or existential proposition.

It is represented as ƎxP(x)

The equation y=9. 5x 0. 4 represents the line of best fit for the distance (in feet) that Marcella traveled over time (in second

Bas_tet [7]

The average speed of Marcella in feet per seconds is 9.5 feet per second.

<h3>How are time taken for travel, distance traveled, and the average speed are related?</h3>

We have this below shown relation between them

$\text{Average speed} = \dfrac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Total time taken to travel that distance}}\\\\or\\\\\text{Total time taken to travel that distance}= \dfrac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Average speed} }$

For the given case, we have:

The equation $y=9.5x + 0.4$ represents the line of best fit for the distance (in feet) that Marcella traveled over time (in seconds)

The line of best fit can be taken as approximately telling about the data points ( y = distance traveled in feet, and x = time spent )

Let the initial time be 'x' with initial distance traveled 'y', then the time after one second will be (x+1), and the distance traveled be $y_1$

The value of y and $y_1$ are calculated as:

$y = 9.5x + 0.4\\y_1 = 9.5(x+1) + 0.4 = 9.5x + 9.9$

Thus, the average speed is calculated at time 'x' as:

$\text{Average speed} = \dfrac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Total time taken to travel that distance}}\\\\or\\\\\text{Average speed} = \dfrac{y_1 - y}{x + 1 - x} = \dfrac{9.5x + 9.9 - 9.5x - 0.4}{1} = 9.5 \: \rm feet/sec$

We could've also used the fact that in the relation of y to x as $y = mx + c$ , 'm' denotes the rate of y as x changes.

Thus, the average speed of Marcella in feet per seconds is 9.5 feet per second.
