(1.1.8 in the book) Let P be the proposition ’I bought a lottery ticket this weekend’ and Q be the proposition ’I won the million dollar jackpot’. Express each of the following propositions in english. a) ¬P b) P ∨ Q c) P → Q d) P ∧ Q e) P ⇐⇒ Q f) ¬P → ¬Q g) ¬P ∧ ¬Q h) ¬P ∨ (P ∧ Q) - can this one be simplified at all?

~ is for negation

^ is for "and"

v is for "or"

=> for "if then"

<=> for "if and only if"

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) ~P (negation of P)

I didn't buy a lottery ticket this weekend.

(b) P v Q (P is in disjunction Q)

I have either bought a lottery ticket this weekend or won the million dollar jackpot.

(c) P => Q (Q is a consequence of P)

I won the million dollar jackpot because I bought a lottery ticket this weekend.

(d) P ^ Q (P is in conjunction with Q)

I bought a lottery ticket this weekend, and I won the million dollar jackpot.

(e) P <=> Q (P and Q are dependent on each other)

If only I had bought a lottery ticket this weekend, I would have won the million dollar jackpot.

(f) ~P => ~Q (negation of Q is a consequence of negation of P)

I didn't win the million dollar jackpot because I didn't buy a lottery ticket this weekend.

(g) ~P ^ ~Q (negation of P is in conjunction with negation of Q)

I neither bought a lottery ticket this weekend nor won the million dollar jackpot.

(h) ~P v (P ^ Q)

This is logically equivalent to (~P v P) ^ (~P v Q) (negation of P is in disjunction with P, and also with disjunction with Q), and can be best expressed as:

It didn't matter that I bought a jackpot ticket or not, I won the million dollar jackpot.

the answers are in the images, i received 100% on this assignment. hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

y = | -2(-2) |     →     y = | 4 |     →     y = 4       ⇒   (-2, 4)

y = | -2(-1) |     →     y = | 2 |     →       y =   2       ⇒   (-1, 2)    

y = | -2(0) |     →     y = | 0 |     →       y = 0         ⇒   (0, 0)

y = | -2(1) |   c →     y = | -2 |     →     y =   2         ⇒   (1, 2)    

y = | -2(2) |     →     y = | - 4 |     →     y =   4         ⇒   (2, 4)
