Write the statements in symbolic form. Let
p: The temperature is 90°.
q:The air conditioner is working.
r.The apartment is hot.
If the apartment is hot and the air conditioner is working, then the temperature is 90°.
The symbol for "if.... then" is "->"
The symbol for "and" is "^"
So the symbolic form is (r^q)->p.
hmmmm still so confusing :(
Write the statement in words if:
p: The water is 70o F.
q: The sun is shining
r: We go swimming
23. ~p → (q v r)
24. (q ↔p) ^r
25. (p →r) ^ p
26. (p ^ q) v r
Let's break down the given statement:
"If the apartment is hot and the air conditioner is working, then the temperature is 90°."
We can translate each part of the statement into symbolic form:
p: The temperature is 90°.
q:The air conditioner is working.
r. The apartment is hot.
The given statement can be represented symbolically as:
r ∧ q → p
In this representation, ∧ represents the logical 'AND' operator, → represents the logical 'IF...THEN' operator, and the variables p, q, and r represent the corresponding statements mentioned in the question.
