6. For each of these arguments, explain which rules of inference are used for each step. a. "Doug, a student in this class, knows how to write programs in JAVA. Everyone who knows how to write program in JAVA can get a high paying job. Therefore, someone in this class can get a high-paying job" b. "Somebody in this class enjoys whale watching. Every person who enjoys whale watching cares about ocean pollution. Therefore, there is a person in this class who cares about ocean pollution"
You visit an island of Knights, Knaves, and Spies. Knights always tell the truth, Knaves always lie, while Spies can say anything (truth or lie). You meet three inhabitants, John, Bill, and Tom. One is a Knight, one is a Knave, and one is a Spy. John says: “I am a knight", Bill says: “John is telling the truth," and Tom says: “I am the spy!". Determine what type of people John, Bill, and Tom are
2. Consider the following propositions: D is the proposition “You are a dog." C is the proposition "You are a cat." B is the proposition “You love bacon." F is the proposition “You love fish." Write the following propositions using the above: (a) If you are a dog then you love bacon. (b) If you love bacon then you are a dog. (c) If you do not love fish then you are not a cat. (d) If you are not a cat then you do not love fish. (e) If you are a dog or you love fish then either you love bacon or you are a cat.
You have 5 propositions with the following truth values: a is true; b is true; c is false; d is false; e is true. What are truth values of the following propositions? a.a ⋀ b ⋁ c b.d ⋀ b ⋁ e c.a ⋀ (b ⋁ c) ⋀ (d ⋁ e) d.a ⋁ b ⋀ c ⋀ d ⋁ e e.a ⋁ a ⋀ b ⋀ e ⋁ c

Everyone is loyal to someone. viii. People only try to assassinate rulers they are not loyal to. ix. Marcus tried to assassinate Caesar. Convert the following sentences into first order logic. And analyzing the above sentence answer and reason “Was Marcus loyal to Caesar?”
3. Consider the Tarski world shown below: d Let Triangle(x), Circle(x), and Square(x) mean “x is a triangle," "x is a circle," and "x is a square"; let Blue(x), Gray(x), and Black(x) mean “x is blue," “x is gray," and "x is black"; let RightOf(x, y), Above(x, y), and SameColorAs(x, y) mean “x is to the right of y," “x is above y," and "x has the same color as y"; and use the notation x = y to denote the predicate “x is equal to y". Let the common domain D of all variables be the set of all the objects in the Tarski world. Each of the following statements is true or false. And explain why. (a) For all squares x there is a circle y such that x and y have different colors and y is above x. (b) There is a triangle x such that for all circles y, y is above x.

• A circuit consists of a 12 V battery connected across a single resistor. If the current in the circuit is 3 A, calculate the size of the resistor. If a small appliance is rated at a current of 10 amps and a voltage of 120 volts, the power rating would be?.
Conway's Game of Life: This is a zero person game with the following rules: (see Wikipedia for example) Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by underpopulation. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overpopulation. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction. Remember the oscillator or blinker of 3 cells. You can also find this blinker on Wikipedia. 1 21 1 2 1 21 3. 4 6 4. 6. 4 8. 9 8 9 #1 #2. #3 5. Consider now these 3 creatures at stage 1: Show how they look like in the next two stages: stage 2 and stage 3. Explain how you get the answers Creature 1 Creature 2 Creature 3 (here creature 1 is the blinker of 3 cells, horizontally; creature 2 consists of two adjacent cells, creature 3 consists of 4 adjacent cells horiztonally) ww (d) Creature 1 (10%), (e) Creature 2 (8%), (f) Creature 3 (20%)
Consider the two mathematical statements: The known integers to all of us are all rational numbers. The real number √2 can not be represented as p/q, where p, q are integers.Achieve the below set of conclusion by using all the rules of inference taught in class:(a) √2 is not an integer(b) There exists at least one real number but not a rational number(c) It is not the case that all the numbers we know are both real number and integer number
You have formulated a hypothesis: "Raspberries contain more vitamin C than oranges." To test this hypothesis you measure vitamin C levels in 15 raspberries and 15 oranges from plants that were grown in the region, so they received approximately the same amount of rain and sunlight, and the temperature was the same. Select all statements that are true about this experiment. Temperature, rain and sunlight is the control group The dependent variables are temperature, rain and sunlight The control group is the oranges The independent variable is the vitamin C levels in the fruits The type of fruit is a control variable The dependent variable is the vitamin C levels in the fruits
From the list below select a contrapositive of the given implication. Select ALL that applies. • "It is cold when it snows" • It is not cold only if it doesn't snow. • If it's not cold, it doesn't snow. • If it snows, then it is cold. • It's not cold if it doesn't snow. • If it doesn't snow, then it is not cold. • The fact that it's not cold implies that it doesn't show.
