Answer:

a P(x) = Q(x)

b. R(x) = Q(x)

c. R(x)  = P(x)

d. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a statement of logical connectives.

a P(x) = Q(x)

b. R(x) = Q(x)

c. R(x)  = P(x)

d. Yes, (c) follows from (a) and (b)

Reasoning:

(c) is equivalent to ∀x ¬ P(x) ∨ Q(x)

Proof:

Follow the tautology (X→Υ) Ξ(¬x∨Υ)

This gives X: R(x) ∧ ¬ P(X)
