1 3.1 Statements and Quantifiers 3.2 Truth Tables

2  A statement is a declarative sentence that is either true or false.  Examples: Mr. Healey is my math teacher. It is sunny today in Narragansett. 2 + 8 = 10 The Patriots lost this past weekend.

3  Paint the wall.  Paul Pierce is better than Ray Allen.

4  May be formed by combining two or more statements using logical connectives.  And, or, not, if…then are examples of connectives.

5  The negation of a true statement is false.  The negation of a false statement is true.

6  “Tom Jones has a red car.”  The negation would be: “Tom Jones does not have a red car”  “The sun is a star”  The negation would be: “The sun is not a star.”

9  Let p represent “It is 80 degrees today” and let q represent “It is Tuesday.”  Write each symbolic statement in words.  p V q  ~p Λ q  ~(p V q)  ~(p Λ q)

10 StatementNegation All do.Some do no. (Equivalently: Not all do.) Some do.None do. (Equivalently: All do not.)

11  Truth tables give every outcome for specific compound statements.  Today we will look at AND, OR, and the NEGATION truth tables.

12  Example: I went to Florida and saw a Red Sox game. pq p Λ q TTT TFF FTF FFF

13  I own a Nissan or I own a Ford. pqp V q TTT TFT FTT FFF
