Prove the formula that:

Mathematics
1 answer:

5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [∀x(L(x) → A(x))] →

[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

To prove, we shall follow a proof by contradiction. We shall include the negation of the conclusion for

arguments. Since with just premise, deriving the conclusion is not possible, we have chosen this proof

technique.

Consider ∀x(L(x) → A(x)) ∧ ¬[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

We need to show that the above expression is unsatisfiable (False).

¬[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

∃x¬((L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y))) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))

∃x((L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y))) ∧ ¬(∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y))))

E.I with respect to x,

(L(a) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(a, y))) ∧ ¬(∃y(A(y) ∧ H(a, y))), for some a

(L(a) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(a, y))) ∧ (∀y(¬A(y) ∧ ¬H(a, y)))

E.I with respect to y,

(L(a) ∧ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b))) ∧ (∀y(¬A(y) ∧ ¬H(a, y))), for some b

U.I with respect to y,

(L(a) ∧ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b)) ∧ (¬A(b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))), for any b

Since P ∧ Q is P, drop L(a) from the above expression.

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b)) ∧ (¬A(b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))), for any b

Apply distribution

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬A(b)) ∨ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))

Note: P ∧ ¬P is false. P ∧ f alse is P. Therefore, the above expression is simplified to

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬A(b))

U.I of ∀x(L(x) → A(x)) gives L(b) → A(b). The contrapositive of this is ¬A(b) → ¬L(b). Replace

¬A(b) in the above expression with ¬L(b). Thus, we get,

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬L(b)), this is again false.

This shows that our assumption that the conclusion is false is wrong. Therefore, the conclusion follows

from the premise.

Find the amount of sap the maple syrup producer collected from each tree if the total amount (5 gallons) was redistributed equal
Afina-wow [57]
The picture in the attached figure

we know that
total amount of sap =[3*(1/4)+2*(3/8)+4*(5/8)+1*(1)]
total amount of sap =[(3/4)+(6/8)+(20/8)+(1)]
total amount of sap =[(3/4)+(3/4)+(10/4)+(4/4)]
total amount of sap =[20/4]
total amount of sap =5 gallons
total of trees=10

<span>[amount of sap collected from each tree]=total amount of sap/total of trees
</span>
[amount of sap collected from each tree]=5/10----> 0.5 gallons per tree

the answer is
0.5 gallons

Suppose 6 quarts of a solution that is 52% antifreeze is mixed with 10 quarts of a solution that is 32% antifreeze. (A) how many
Vadim26 [7]
The total amount of the resulting mixture can be calculated by adding up the volume of the given substances assuming that volume addition is applicable given the properties of the fluids used. 

That is,
   T = 6 quarts + 10 quarts = 16 quarts

The total volume of the resulting mixture is 16.

Then, we do the component (antifreeze) balance by adding up the resulting antifreeze from the substances to the total. We let x be the percentage of antifreeze in the final mixture.

    6(0.52) + 10(0.32) = 16(x)

The value of x from the equation is 0.395.

Therefore, the answer to this item is 39.5%.

PLZ HELP IMPORTANT!
ad-work [718]
After you've calibrated the sprayer to know your application rate in gallons per acre, divide that number into the gallons applied with each tankful to find how many acres each tankful covers. Then, multiply the acres per tank by the herbicide needed per acre to find the herbicide to put in each tankful.
