### Problem 4: Translation of Statements into SymbolsLet \( P(x, y) \) denote "x sent a text message to y." The universe of discourse (u.d.) for both \( x \) and \( y \) is all people. Translate the following statements into symbolic form:**a. Everyone has sent a text message to someone.**Translated Symbolically: \[ \forall x \, \exists y \, P(x, y) \]This can be read as: "For every person \( x \), there exists a person \( y \) such that \( x \) sent a text message to \( y \)."**b. Everyone has been sent a text message by someone.**Translated Symbolically:\[ \forall x \, \exists y \, P(y, x) \]This can be read as: "For every person \( x \), there exists a person \( y \) such that \( y \) sent a text message to \( x \)."

Given: Given the following translate into symbols.

(4) 4. Let P(x,y)= "x sent a text message to y." The u.d. for both x and y is all people. Translate into symbols: a. Everyone has sent a text message to someone. b. Everyone has been sent a text message by someone.

Q3. Let E = {a, b}. Let BDFA = {(M)| M is a DFA that accepts some string containing an equal number of as and bs). Show that BDFA is decidable. (Hint: remember the different results/theorems about CFLs, provide a semi-formal discussion/argument)
3. Spirometry is a test of lung function that measures how much and how quickly (volume and flow) the air movement in and out of the lungs. The measurements are made using an instrument called spirometer, which can provide the following parameters: i. Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) ii. Forced vital capacity (FVC) These parameters can be used to make a diagnosis and to determine the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), an obstructive respiratory disorder characterized by airflow limitation and inflammation. It happens when the ratio of FEV1 to FVC is less than 0.70. The spirometric classification of COPD severity based on FEV1 is given in Table 5. Table 5. Spirometric classification of COPD severity. Condition / Severity Normal Mild COPD Moderate COPD Severe COPD Very severe COPD FEV1/ FVC > 0.70 FEV1 > 0.80 0.50 –- 0.79 < 0.70 0.30 - 0.49 <0.30 You are required to develop a program used by a medical practitioner to analyze the condition of few group…
Note that for this question, you can in addition use ``land” for the symbol ``lor" for the symbol V ` `Inot" for the symbol ¬ Given the following three sentences: A) Every mathematician is married to an engineer. B) A bachelor is not married to anyone. C) If George is a mathematician, then he is not a bachelor. a) Convert A,B,C into three FOL sentences, where Mn(x): x is a mathematician. Er(x): x is an engineer. Md(x,y): x is married to y. Br(x): x is a bachelor. george: George is a constant. b) Show that A does-not-entail C. (Hint: Consider defining an interpretation / such that / models A, but does-not-model C.) c) Show that {A,B} entails C. (Hint: For a given interpretation I, consider two difference cases, the case where Mn(george) is true, and the case Mn(george) is false. For both cases, argue that it is always that I models C). d) Convert A,B, Inot C into a set of clausal forms, number your clauses.
