Under what circumstances should Euler diagrams rather than truth tables be used to determine whether or not an argument is valid?
Translate each argument into symbolic form. Then determine whether the argument is valid or invalid. You may use a truth table or, if applicable, compare the argument's symbolic form to a standard valid or invalid form. (You can ignore differences in past, present, and future tense.) If Tim and Janet play, then the team wins. Tim played and the team did not win. \(\therefore\) Janet did not play.
Use a truth table to determine whether the symbolic form of the argument is valid or invalid. $$ \begin{aligned} &p \rightarrow q \\ &\underline{q \rightarrow r} \\ &\therefore \sim p \rightarrow \sim r \end{aligned} $$
In Exercises 15-42, translate each argument into symbolic form. Then determine whether the argument is valid or invalid. You may use a truth table or, if applicable, compare the argument's symbolic form to a standard valid or invalid form. (You can ignore differences in past, present, and future tense.) If it is cold, my motorcycle will not start. My motorcycle started. \(\therefore\) It is not cold.
Determine whether each argument is valid or invalid. No \(A\) are \(B\), some \(A\) are \(C\), and all \(C\) are \(D\). Thus, some \(D\) are \(B\)
