Let p be “I attend the lecture,” q be “I watch the lecture recording,” and r be “I do well on the quiz.” - Write the following argument in argument form (i.e., using propositions and logical operators) and prove that it is valid using the rules of inference. You must indicate the name of the rule used in each step of the proof. 1. If I attend the lecture, then I do well on the quiz. I attend the lecture or watch the lecture recording. I did not watch the lecture recording. Therefore, I did well on the quiz.

Given the argument: "If it is hot or humid, then I complain. I am not complaining. __________________ Therefore, it is neither hot nor humid." Translate the argument into symbolic form. Build a truth table for the above argument. Is this argument valid or invalid? Based on your truth table, explain why the argument is valid or invalid.
Determine whether the argument is valid or invalid. r ↔ p q ∨ r ∴ p ∨ r
An argument is expressed in English below. Catalina is sleepy or Catalina is not shocked. Catalina is excited. : Catalina is excited or Catalina is sleepy. Variable names are assigned to each English phrase as follows: •p: Catalina is excited •q: Catalina is shocked •r: Catalina is sleepy What is the form of the argument? Pick Pick v : Pick v
Consider the following argument: If the white flag is flying, then truce has been declared. Truce has not been declared. Therefore, the white flag is not flying. (a) Define statement variables for each component of the above argument, then write the formal argument using your variables. (b) Is the above argument valid? Explain. c) Find the contrapositive of the statement, “If the white flag is flying, then truce has been declared.” d) If the statement “If the white flag is flying, then truce has been declared” is replaced with its contrapositive, will the above argument be valid? Why or why not?
p = I am tired q = Class is early If I am tired then class is early. This is an early class. Therefore, I am tired. Write the argument using logic symbols, then show if the argument is valid or invalid.
1. Given the argument: If Peter is a math major, then peter must take Math 3110 Peter took Math 3110 .. Peter is a Math major (a) Write the argument form. (define all variables) (b) Use truth tables to check the validity of the argument. (c) Explain why the argument is valid or invalid.
Use symbols to write the logical form of the following arguments. If valid, iden- tify the rule of inference that guarantees its validity. Otherwise, state whether the converse or the inverse error has been made. If you study hard for your discrete math final you will get an A. Jane got an A on her discrete math final. Therefore, Jane must have studied hard.
