(b) (i) The following two formulas are two ways of saying "all cars have four wheels": Vcar.hasFour Wheels(car) Vr.car(r) → hasFour Wheels(r) With reference to how formulas in predicate logic are interpreted in a universe, explain the difference between these two ways of expressing "all cars have four wheels". (ii) Assume now that the universe consists of websites and that we are working in a vocabulary with a single predicate symbol links To of arity 2, with the intended meaning that linksTo(2, y) holds when z links to y. State the following English sentences as Predicate Logic formulas in this vocabulary: 1. Every website links to itself. 2. Every website links to some other website.

2. Using the given predicate definitions, express the following as a predicate formula. The universe of discourse (the set of all possible values applicable to predicate variables) is given to be the set of human beings. S(r, y) - True only if z is the sibling of y F(1, y) - True only if r is the father of y "If there are two individuals who are siblings then they have the same father". (hint xou may have to use equality predicate)

Consider the predicate language with predicate symbol <, where x < y means that "x is an object different from y that comes before y"; (and = is the usual equality symbol).

A. ∃x ∀y (y<x) B. ∃x ∀y (¬(y<x) → (y=x)) C. ∀x ∃y (x<y) D. ∃x ∀y ((y<x) ∨ (y=x))
