Answer:
Let y(x)="x is valid and x has true premises" and z(x)="x has a true conclusion".
Step-by-step explanation:
The universe U is the collection of all arguments so that x∈U. The statement uses the universal quantifier ∀ represented by the word "Every". The words "valid", "with true premises" and "has a true conclusions" are properties of an argument x.
We can interptet the statement as: "For all x, (x is valid and x has true premises)→(x has a true conclusion)". Symbolically, (∀x)(y(x)→z(x)). The implication → can be read as "if y(x) then z(x)".

Answer:
6 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information from the problem, if Emily continues to pick 3 strawberries per second while Sophia eats 5 strawberries per second, then the amount of strawberries will decrease at a rate of 2 strawberries per second. Therefore, we can find the answer by subtracting 2 from 20 until we get to 8. Since we subtract 2 six times, the answer is 6. Hope this makes sense!
3 over 5 x minus 15 = 6 over 5 x plus 12
3/5x - 15 = 6/5x +12
-3/5x+3/5x-15=6/5x-3/5x+12 subtraction property
-15=3/5x+12 simplified
-12-15=3/5x+12-12 subtraction property
-27=3/5x simplified
(5/3)(-27)=3/5 (5/3)x multiplicative inverse
-45=x
