Question
Given interpretations
(a) (Vx) (y) P(x, y) → (x)(Vy) P(x, y)
(b) (Vx) [P(x) → Q(x)] → [(x) P(x) → (Vx)Q(x)]
(c) (Vx)[A(x)]' → [(Vx)A(x)]'
to prove that each of the following wffs is not valid.

Expert Solution
Step 1

A. (∀x)( ∃y)P(x,y) → (∃x)( ∀y)P(x,y)

This wff is invalid because the quantifiers cannot be changed.

Suppose a property is true for some objects, then it is not necessary that the property holds for all objects.
