Problem 2

Construct a truth table for the given statement. \(\sim p \rightarrow q\)

Problem 2

a. Use a truth table to show that \(p \rightarrow q\) and \(\sim p \vee q\) are equivalent. b. Use the result from part (a) to write a statement that is equivalent to If a number is even, then it is divisible by \(2 .\)

Problem 3

Use Euler diagrams to determine whether each argument is valid or invalid. All clocks keep time accurately. All time-measuring devices keep time accurately. Therefore, all clocks are time-measuring devices.
