2.For statements 𝑝,𝑞 and 𝑟, use a truth table to verify that each of
the following pairs of statements is logically equivalent.
e. (p⟹(q∧r))∨(ךp∧q).
f. (𝑝∧𝑞)⟹((𝑞∧))𝑞∧𝑟(⟹)𝑞ך.
f) ((((p ⇒q) ⇒(r ⇒q)) ⋀(ךp)) ⋁r) g) (Ꞁ(((Ꞁ(q V r)))⇔ (q ⋁p)))
4) Identify for the following compound statements as
tautology,contradiction or neither.
a) [(Ꞁp⋀(q⋁Ꞁr)]⇒(Ꞁq⇔p) b)
[(p⇒q)⋀(q⇒p)⇒(p⇒r)]
c) (𝑝∧ )𝑞∧𝑝(∧)𝑞ךd) ((A ⇔ ( ( ךp) V r))⇒ ( (┐q) ⇔p))
e) ((pV (Ꞁ(r ⋀ C)))⇒ ((p⇔q) ⋁r))
5. Suppose the value of 𝑝⟹𝑞 is 𝑇; what can be said about the value
of ?𝑞∨𝑝⟺𝑞∧𝑝ך
b. Suppose the value of 𝑝⟺𝑞 is 𝐹; what can be said about the values
of 𝑞⟺𝑝ךand 𝑝⟺?𝑞ך
6.For each of the following determine decide the truth valu for the
given information.
a) (𝑝∧𝑞)⟹(𝑝∨𝑠), where 𝑝=𝑇 and 𝑠=T b) )𝑞ך∧𝑝ך(⟺)𝑞∨𝑝(ך, where
𝑝∨𝑞=F
