Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : The examination is difficult and I study hard but I shall not pass Concept: Let p and q are any two statements. \(\rm \sim (p \rightarrow q) = p \wedge q\) Calculations: Let p:The examination is difficult. q:I shall pass. r:I study hard. Symbolic form of "If the examination is difficult, then I shall pass if I study hard." is\(\rm p \rightarrow (r \rightarrow q)\) Symbolic form of Negation of "If the examination is difficult, then I shall pass if I study hard." =\(\rm \sim (\rm p \rightarrow (r \rightarrow q))\) we know, ⇒\(\rm \sim (\rm p \rightarrow (r \rightarrow q))\)=\(\rm p \wedge (r \wedge \sim q)\) Hence, the examination is difficultand I study hard but I shall not pass. |
