Suppose that P, Q and R are statements for which the only thing you are told is that P → (Q ∧ P) is false. This should give you some information about P and Q Consider the statements below, given the information from above. For each statement below, answer one of the following: (i) we know it is true; (ii) we know it is false; (iii) we do not have enough information. Give very brief explanations for your answers. (a) Q ∧ R (b) P ∨ ¬R (c) Q → P

Question

) Suppose that P, Q and R are statements for which the only thing you
are told is that P → (Q ∧ P) is false. This should give you some information about P and Q

Consider the statements below, given the information from above. For each statement
below, answer one of the following:
(i) we know it is true; (ii) we know it is false; (iii) we do not have enough
information.
Give very brief explanations for your answers.
(a) Q ∧ R
(b) P ∨ ¬R
(c) Q → P

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that the statement PQP is false 

therefore, first make a truth table  for PQP

P Q QP PQP
T T T T
T F F F
F T F T
F F F T

Therefore, PQP is false only if P is true and Q is False
