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.

Given:

The figure of a rhombus QRST.

To find:

A. The value of x.

B. The measure of angle RQP.

Solution:

A. We need to find the value of x.

We know that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors. It means the angles on the intersection of diagonals are right angles.

m\angle RPS=90^\circ                       [Right angle]

(5x+15)^\circ=90^\circ

(5x+15)=90

5x=90-15

5x=75

Divide both sides by 5.

x=\dfrac{75}{5}

x=15

Therefore, the value of x is 15.

B. We need to find the measure of angle RQP.

From the given figure, it is clear that

m\angle RQP=(2x+3)^\circ

Putting x=15, we get

m\angle RQP=(2(15)+3)^\circ

m\angle RQP=(30+3)^\circ

m\angle RQP=33^\circ

Therefore, the measure of angle RQP is 33 degrees.

A data analyst has spreadsheets numbered
algol [13]

Answer:

\frac{2}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

{\textrm}{Total number of objects here} = 9

(2 spreadsheets, 3 databases and 4 presentations,

{\textrm}({Total} = 2+3+4 = 9)

{\textrm}{No. of databases with an odd number} = 2 {\textrm}{(databases with number 1 and 3})

As  not mentioned other wise equal chances of all the outcomes is assumed so, by the classical definition of probability,

P(The chosen item is a odd numbered database)

=\frac{2}{9}

How do I do this and what’s the answer
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The area of the four curved surfaces is the area of one circle with a radius of 4 cm

Area = PI * radius^2

Area = PI * 4 ^ 2

Area = PI * 16 = 50.26548245744 sq cm

Area of entire square = 8 * 8 = 64 sq cm

Area of yellow region = 64 - 50.265 sq cm =

= 13.735 = 13.7 sq cm (rounded to nearest tenth)
