Use the standard forms of valid arguments to draw a valid conclusion from the given premises. If I vacation in Paris, I eat French pastries. If I eat French pastries, I gain weight. Therefore, ...
Use a truth table to determine whether the symbolic form of the argument is valid or invalid. $$ \begin{aligned} &p \rightarrow q \\ &\underline{q \rightarrow r} \\ &\therefore r \rightarrow p \end{aligned} $$
Use Euler diagrams to determine whether each argument is valid or invalid. All actors are artists. Sean Penn is an actor. Therefore, Sean Penn is an artist.
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 we close the door, then there is less noise. There is less noise. \(\therefore\) We closed the door.
In Exercises 25-36, determine whether each argument is valid or invalid. All natural numbers are whole numbers, all whole numbers are integers, and \(-4006\) is not a whole number. Thus, \(-4006\) is not an integer.
