6. Choose the answer that correctly fills in the blank. If a set of statements S is logically inconsistent, then it must be true that (A) more than one member of S is false. (B) the truth of one or more members of S would entail the falsity of some other member of S. (C) every member of S is falsifiable. (D) no member of S is equivalent to any other member.

4. If p is true, q is false, r is true, and s is false, what are the truth values of q →~r and ~s ⇔ p, respectively?
In logic what is the difference between propositional forms that are necessarily equivalent and propositional forms which are equivalent? In chapter 1.1 of book “A Transition to Advanced Mathematics” by Douglas Smith, he states two propositional forms are equivalent if they have the same truth table. The book doesn’t mention anything about “necessary equivalence” until chapter 1.1, exercise 9: “Suppose P, Q, S, and R are propositional forms, P is equivalent to Q, and S is equivalent to R. For each pair of forms, determine whether they are necessarily equivalent. If they are equivalent explain why.”
2. Use a truth table to justify the following logical equivalence: - (p → q) V r = (pV r) ^ (~ q V r)
7. Say we are given that the statement p A (p → q) is true. Can we deduce the statement q?
