Let Q(x, y) be the predicate "If x < y then x? < y?," with domain for both x and y being R, the set of all real numbers.(a) When x = -2 and y = 1, is Q(x, y) true or false?The hypothesis of Q(-2, 1) is -2 < 1, which is true. The conclusion is 4 < 1which is false. Thus Q(-2, 1) is a conditional statement with a trueV hypothesis and a falseconclusion. So Q(-2, 1) is false(b) Give values different from those in part (a) for which Q(x, y) has the same truth value as in part (a).(х, у) %3D(c) When x = 3 and y = 8, is Q(x, y) true or false?The hypothesis of Q(3, 8) is 3 < 8, which is trueThe conclusion is 9 < 64, which is trueThus Q(3, 8) is a conditional statement with a trueV hypothesis and a truevy conclusion.
