Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's go through each question one by one and tackle them:
Question 1
Use logical operators (conjunction, disjunction, implication, biconditional, negation, xor, nand, nor):
1a. Jika kamu tidak lapar dan kenyang maka perutmu akan merasa lapar
This translates to:
- Let be "kamu tidak lapar" (you are not hungry).
- Let be "kenyang" (full).
- Let be "perut merasa lapar" (stomach feels hungry).
The statement can be written as:
Question 2
Construct a truth table for the proposition:
Where:
- denotes implication,
- denotes negation,
- denotes exclusive or (xor),
- denotes biconditional.
To solve this, we need to list out all possible truth values for , , and , and then evaluate each component of the expression to complete the truth table.
Question 3
Determine whether the statement below is a tautology, contradiction, or contingent:
- A tautology is a statement that is always true.
- A contradiction is a statement that is always false.
- A contingent statement is one that is true for some values and false for others.
Question 4
Prove the logical equivalence of the following expressions: This requires using laws of logical equivalences, such as De Morgan's laws, distribution, and associative laws, to show both sides of the equivalence are equal.
