Use a truth table to determine whether the following is a tautology, a contradiction, or neither. ~PAP Q~QvQ

NNADVOKAT [17]4 years ago

Answer:

The statement \lnot P \land P \rightarrow Q \rightarrow\lnot Q\lor Q is a tautology.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following statement \lnot P \land P \rightarrow Q \rightarrow\lnot Q\lor Q

A truth table shows how the truth or falsity of a compound statement depends on the truth or falsity of the simple statements from which it's constructed.

The simple statements from the statement given are:

\lnot P, \lnot Q, \lnot P \land P, \lnot P \land P \rightarrow Q, and \lnot Q \lor Q with these you can construct the following truth table.

A tautology is a formula that is always true, it is true for every assignment of truth values to its simple components.

The last column contains only true values. Therefore, the statement is a tautology.

molly ate one-third of bags of chips on friday. on saturday, she ate one-half of what was left in the bag. how much of the whole
DochEvi [55]
If Molly ate 1/3 of the bag of chips on Friday, that means that there is 2/3 of the bag left.

Then, she eats 1/2 of what is left in the bag (2/3).  (We multiply these fractions to find the answer.)

1/2 * 2/3 = 1/3.

<span>Therefore, Molly at 1/3 of the entire bag on Saturday. </span>

Assume the random variable x is normally distributed with mean p= 80 and standard deviation o = 4. Find the indicated probabilit
taurus [48]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Assume the random variable x is normally distributed with mean p = 80 and standard deviation σ = 4.

Find the indicated probability.  P(67 < x < 72)

(Round to four decimal places as needed.)

Answer:

the indicated is 0.0222

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mean μ = 80

standard deviation σ = 4

p ⇒ P ( x -μ  / σ )

so

P(67 < x < 72) ⇒ P( 67-80 / 4 ) < P( x -μ  / σ )  < P( 72-80 / 4 )

P(67 < x < 72) ⇒ P( -13 / 4 ) < P( x -μ  / σ ) < P( -8 / 4 )

P(67 < x < 72) ⇒ P( -13 / 4  < z < -8 / 4 )

P(67 < x < 72) ⇒ P( -3.25  < z < -2 )

⇒ P( z < -2 ) - P( z < -3.25)

Now from z table;

⇒ 0.02275 - 0.00058

P(67 < x < 72) ⇒ 0.02217 ≈ 0.0222  { four decimal places }

Therefore, the indicated is 0.0222

Cylinders A and B are similar solids. The base of cylinder A has a circumference of 4π units. The base of cylinder B has an area
Alex
The formula for the circumference of a circle is
  C = 2π·r
or
  r = C/(2π)
The radius r of cylinder A is
  r = (4π)/(2π) = 2

The formula for the area of a circle is
  A = π·r²
or
  r = √(A/π)
The radius of cylinder B is
  r = √(9π/π) = 3

The dimensions of cylinder A must be multiplied by 3/2 to produce the corresponding dimensions of cylinder B.

The sum of three numbers is 54. the third number is 2 times the first. the first number is 6 more than the second. what are the
vaieri [72.5K]
Hello!

To solve this, we will use a system of equations. We will have the numbers be represented by x, y, and z, where x will represent the first, y the second, and z the third.

x+y+z=54
z=2x
x=6+y

We know that x is equal to 6+y. We can plug this into the second equation to find z.

z=12+2y

Now we can plug these y values into the first equation to find y.

6+y+y+12+2y=54
18+4y=54
4y=36
y=9

Now we know the value of y. We can plug this into the equations to find the other values.

x=6+9
x=15

z=15(2)
z=30

Just to check, we will add them all up and see if they equal 64.

15+9+30=54

The first number is 15, the second is 9, and the third is 30.

I hope this helps!
