The set consists of three students: Garth, who is 5 feet 11 inches tall; Erin, who is 5 feet 6 inches tall; and Marty, who is 6 feet tall. The set consists of four students: Dale, who is 5 feet 11 inches tall; Garth, who is 5 feet 11 inches tall; Erin, who is 5 feet 6 inches tall; and Mary, who is 6 feet tall. The set consists of one student: Dale, who is 6 feet tall. The set consists of three students: Part, Sandy, and Gal, each of whom is 5 feet 11 inches tall. is the propositional function "x is taller than y." Tell whether each proposition is true or false if the domain of discourse is for the given values of i and j.
i=4, j=1
Solution
VerifiedGiven:
= is taller than
=Garth (5 ft 11 in), Erin (5 ft 6 in), Marty (6 ft)
=Dale (6 ft); Garth (5 ft 11 in), Erin (5 ft 6 in), Marty (6 ft)
=Dale (6 ft)
=Pat (5 ft 11 in), Sandy (5 ft 11 in), Gale (5 ft 11 in)
of and :
Let us determine all elements of :
: Everyone is taller than everyone. This statement is , because we note that Pat is not taller than Marty.
: Everyone is taller than somebody. This statement is , because we note that Pat, Sandy and Gale are all taller than Erin.
: Somebody is taller than everyone. This statement is , because we note that Pat, Sandy and Gale are all not taller than Marty.
: Someone is taller than someone. This statement is , because we note that Pat is taller than Erin.
