Mathematical Logic And Boolean Algebra Question 137

Question: Consider the following statements

P: Suman is brilliant Q: Suman is rich R: Suman is honest The negation of the statement “Suman is brilliant and dishonest if any only if suman is rich” can be expressed as

Options:

A) $ \tilde{\ }(P\wedge \tilde{\ }R)rightarrow Q $

B) $ \tilde{\ }(P\wedge (Qrightarrow ,\tilde{\ }R) $

C) $ \tilde{\ }(Qrightarrow (P\wedge \tilde{\ }R)) $

D) $ \tilde{\ }Qrightarrow ,\tilde{\ }P\wedge R $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

[c] Suman is brilliant and dishonest is $ P\wedge \sim R $ Suman is brilliant and dishonest iff Suman is rich is $ Qrightarrow (P\wedge \sim R) $ Negative of statement is expressed as $ \sim (Qrightarrow (P\wedge \sim R) $
