Use quantifiers and predicates with more than one variable to express, “There is a pupil in this lecture who has taken at least one course in Discrete Maths.”(a) ∃x∃yP (x, y), where P (x, y) is “x has taken y,” the domain for x consists of all pupil in this class, and the domain for y consists of all Discrete Maths lectures(b) ∃x∃yP (x, y), where P (x, y) is “x has taken y,” the domain for x consists of all Discrete Maths lectures, and the domain for y consists of all pupil in this class(c) ∀x∀yP(x, y), where P (x, y) is “x has taken y,” the domain for x consists of all pupil in this class, and the domain for y consists of all Discrete Maths lectures(d) ∃x∀yP(x, y), where P (x, y) is “x has taken y,” the domain for x consists of all pupil in this class, and the domain for y consists of all Discrete Maths lecturesThe question was posed to me during an online interview.I want to ask this question from Logics in portion The Foundation: Logics and Proofs of Discrete Mathematics

Answer»

The correct choice is (a) ∃x∃yP (x, y), where P (x, y) is “x has taken y,” the DOMAIN for x CONSISTS of all pupil in this CLASS, and the domain for y consists of all Discrete Maths lectures

To elaborate: For some x pupil, there exists a course in Discrete Maths such that x has taken y.
