1. Write the contrapositive of the statement. A way that is technically correctbut much more wordy than needed will not get full credit.“If a person is at least 23 years old, then the person gets a reduced rate”
2. . Prove that the following is true by showing a string of logical equivalences.Justify each step with a logical equivalence from table 6, 7, or 8 from section 1.3 (givenon next page)[(? ∨ ?) ∧ ~(? ∨ ?)] → [? ∨ ?]

- Universal instantiation can be used to prove one of the classical "syllogisms" of the Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle, who lived from 384 to 322 B.C.E. and who first developed a system of formal logic. The argument has the form, "All humans are mortal. Socrates is human. There- fore Socrates is mortal." Using the notation H(x) is “x is human." s is a constant symbol (Socrates) M(x) is "x is mortal." the argument is (Vx)[H(x) → M(x)] ^ H(s) → M(s) and a proof sequence is (Vx)(H(x) → M(x)) hyp Но) һyp H(s) → M(s) 1, ui M(s) 2, 3, mp In step 3, a constant symbol has been substituted for x throughout the scope of thearrow_forwardB.
