(@@+8)*-(y-6)? =1 si ye Unit3 Basie Logie Logic is.a method of reasoning that involves a series of statements, each of which must be true ifthe statement before it is true. It is particular way of thinking, especially one that is reasonable and based on good judgment. Inductive Reasoping or Inductive Logic or Induction + Versus . 4 Deductive Reasoning or Deductive Logic or Deduction 60 : DEDUCTIVE . INDUCTIVE INFORMATION THEORY Deductive Reasoning " Deduetive reasoning links premises with conelusions. If all premises are true, the terms are clear, and the rules of deductive logic are followed, then ihe conclusion reached is necessarily true. ~ Inductive Reasoning Inductive reasoning (as opposed to deductive reasoning or abductive reasoning) is reasoning in which the premises are viewed as supplying strong evidence for the truth of the conclusion. The truth of the conclusion of an inductive argument may be probable, based upon the evidence given 3.1, Statements with Quantifiers and Their Truth Value Quantifiers and Their Symbols In Mathematics, we usually use the phrase “for all x” and “for some x” vzxis called the Universal Quantifier refers to “for all x” axis called the Existential Quantifier refers to “for some x” The two statements have the same quantifier “For all...” 1. Each of real numbers when added by zero equals to that real number. 2. Every real number when added by zero equals to that real number. 61 The two statements have the same quantifier “For some...” 1. There exists at least a real number which is less than zero. 2. For some real numbers which is less than zero. Example: When the universal set is a set of real numbers, symbolically write the sentences. 1, Forall x,x+x=2x. There exists some x, x +0 =x. For all x, if xis an integer then x is a real number. Every real number is an eger. OS de For some integer, its square is 1 Solution: 1. Forall x,x+x~2x. 4 2 valx + x= 2x], U=R 2.

However, it may be omitted when the universal set refers to the set of real numbers."Fhe universal set is always accompanied while defining a set. 62 Example: 1.

Syllogism Syllogism is a process by which there is a number of propositions or statements which are considered premises or hypothesis and a conclusion which is drawn from the premises. The logical operator “A” is used to combine premises and the conditional operator “>” means “then”. The process of syllogism can be described as: Hypothesis (or Premise) > Conclusion If (Pi Pz w= Ps) Cisa tautology, then (Pia P20...
