Math Problem Statement
Solution
This problem asks to express statements using logical symbols. The universe of discourse is a set of people, where:
- : is a student.
- : is intelligent.
Here are the logical symbolic expressions for each statement:
a. Semua mahasiswa adalah pandai.
(All students are intelligent.)
This is a universal quantifier statement:
Translation: "For all , if is a student, then is intelligent."
b. Tidak ada mahasiswa yang pandai.
(No students are intelligent.)
This is a negated existential statement:
Translation: "There does not exist an such that is a student and is intelligent."
c. Beberapa mahasiswa adalah pandai.
(Some students are intelligent.)
This is an existential quantifier statement:
Translation: "There exists an such that is a student and is intelligent."
d. Beberapa mahasiswa tidaklah pandai.
(Some students are not intelligent.)
This is an existential quantifier with a negation:
Translation: "There exists an such that is a student and is not intelligent."
Would you like a detailed breakdown of any of these steps or need further clarification?
Here are 5 questions to expand the understanding:
- How would you express "Only students are intelligent" using logical symbols?
- Can you express "At least one student is not intelligent" in another form?
- What is the difference between universal and existential quantifiers?
- How would you negate the statement "Some students are intelligent" logically?
- What would happen if we change the universe of discourse to only students?
Tip: Be careful when translating statements with "no" or "none" as these often involve negating an existential quantifier.
