Mathematics
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See deductions below

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

a) p(y)∧q(y) for some y (Existencial instantiation to H1)

b) q(y) for some y (Simplification of a))

c) q(y) → r(y) for all y (Universal instatiation to H2)

d) r(y) for some y (Modus Ponens using b and c)

e) p(y) for some y (Simplification of a)

f) p(y)∧r(y) for some y (Conjunction of d) and e))

g) ∃x (p(x) ∧ r(x)) (Existencial generalization of f)

2)

a) ¬C(x) → ¬A(x) for all x (Universal instatiation of H1)

b) A(x) for some x (Existencial instatiation of H3)

c) ¬(¬C(x)) for some x (Modus Tollens using a and b)

d) C(x) for some x (Double negation of c)

e) A(x) → ∀y B(y) for all x (Universal instantiation of H2)

f)  ∀y B(y) (Modus ponens using b and e)

g) B(y) for all y (Universal instantiation of f)

h) B(x)∧C(x) for some x (Conjunction of g and d, selecting y=x on g)

i) ∃x (B(x) ∧ C(x)) (Existencial generalization of h)

3) We will prove that this formula leads to a contradiction.

a) ∀y (P (x, y) ↔ ¬P (y, y)) for some x (Existencial instatiation of hypothesis)

b) P (x, y) ↔ ¬P (y, y) for some x, and for all y (Universal instantiation of a)

c) P (x, x) ↔ ¬P (x, x) (Take y=x in b)

But c) is a contradiction (for example, using truth tables). Hence the formula is not satisfiable.

Explain how to compare two lengths that are measured in different sized units
nalin [4]
There are conversion tables everywhere that assist you in changing a different unit into another. Depending on what it is, you can also compare weight into water, cm into m and backwards.

Which equation is made true by the opposite angles theorem?
Oksana_A [137]

Solution

Step 1

The opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal:

Step 2

85\text{ + y  =  3y - 15}

The equation is made true by the opposite angles theorem is

85 + y = 3y - 15

or

y = 50

2x+3y=41 and 5x+4y=85
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

5x+4y=85-

 Slope = -2.500/2.000 = -1.250

 x-intercept = 85/5 = 17

 y-intercept = 85/4 = 21.25000

2x+3y=41-

 Slope = -1.333/2.000 = -0.667

 x-intercept = 41/2 = 20.50000

 y-intercept = 41/3 = 13.66667
