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.
