Problem 11.4. Let Þ(x, y) be a formula with at most two free vari- ables x and y. Suppose also that no occurrence of x or y in is bounded by a quantifier. Prove that the following sentences are true. (1) (Vx)(Vy)Þ(x, y) ⇒ (Vx)Þ(x,x) (2) (3x)Þ(x,x) ⇒ (3x) (‡y)Þ(x, y) (3) (3x)(Vy)Þ(x, y) ⇒ (Vy)(3x)Þ(x, y)

Problem 11.4. Let Þ(x, y) be a formula with at most two free vari-
ables x and y. Suppose also that no occurrence of x or y in D is bounded
by a quantifier. Prove that the following sentences are true.
(1) (Vx)(Vy)Þ(x, y) ⇒ (Vx)Þ(x,x)
(2) (3x)Þ(x,x) ⇒ (3x)(y)Þ(x, y)
(3) (3x)(Vy)Þ(x, y) ⇒ (Vy)(3x)Þ(x, y)
