Let P(x) and Q(x) be predicates and suppose D is the domain of x. For the statement forms in each pair, determine whether (a) th

ey have the same truth value for every choice of P(x), Q(x), and D, or (b) there is a choice of P(x), Q(x), and D for which they have opposite truth values.

Answer / Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement:

∃x∈D,(P(x)∧Q(x)) and (∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃x∈D,Q(x)) ,

Then,

(a), The variable used in a ∃ statement does not matter, thus, we can change the appearance of one of the variable used in the ∃ statement.

That is:

(∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃x∈D,Q(x)) = (∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃y∈D,Q(y))

Where  

(∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃x∈D,Q(x)) = (∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃y∈D,Q(y)) implies that P(x) is true for some element x in D and Q(y) is true for some element y in D. However, x and y are not necessary the same element and thus, we cannot be sure that  

P(x) ∧ Q(x) or P(y) ∧ Q(y) is true.

Moreover, if P(x) is only true for x and no other element in the domain D, and if Q(y) is only true for y and no other element in the domain D, while x ≠ y,

Then, P(x) ∧ Q(x) is false and P(y) ∧ Q(y) is also false. Moreover, there is no other known element (z) such that P(z) ∧ Q(z) is true and thus the statement  

∃x∈D,(P(x)∧Q(x)) is false while the statement (∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃x∈D,Q(x)) is true.

(b)

If the statement P(x) is only true for x and no other element in the domain D, and if Q(y) is only true for y and no other element in the domain D, while x ≠ y, then Then, P(x) ∧ Q(x) is false and P(y) ∧ Q(y) is also false. Moreover, there is no other known element (z) such that P(z) ∧ Q(z) is true and thus the statement  

∃x∈D,(P(x)∧Q(x)) is false while the statement (∃x∈D,P(x))∧(∃x∈D,Q(x)) is true.

So in summary, we can say for:

(a) the statement does not contain the same truth value.

(b) The statement depicts there is such a choice in the first place.

A polygon is regular if each of its sides has the same length. Find the perimeter of the regular polygon. #36
vazorg [7]
Take the length of one of the sides and times that by the radius. Divide that answer by 2. Now take that and multiply by the number of sides the polygon has. If you can't find the radius or side, you're going to have to use tan, sin, or cos.

(Help me please) what can you tell about the mean of each distribution
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The distribution is considered the mean in the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

$124.84 - $19.75 = <u>$105.09</u>

<u>If you can consider what the mean is in math: How to Find the Mean. The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.</u>

An equation that represents the path of a diver jumping off a diving board is y = –7x2 + 5x + 16. Graph this function from the p
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that represents the path of a diver jumping off a diving board is

y = -7x^2 + 5x + 16.

The diver jumped to the water when x = 0.

Then

y=-7\cdot 0^2+5\cdot 0+16=16

The jumper reached the water when y = 0, then

-7x^2+5x+16=0\\ \\D=5^2-4\cdot (-7)\cdot 16=25+448=473\\ \\x_{1,2}=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{473}}{-14}

So, point where the  jumper reached the water is

\left(\dfrac{5+\sqrt{473}}{14},0\right)\approx (1.93,0)
