Question
Here is a model: Domain: {1, 2, 3, 4} B : {3, 4}, C : {1, 4}, F : ∅ Make a proposition that is false in this model by filling in each of the blank spaces of (blank)z((B(blank)(blank) z) → (blank)(blank)y¬F y) with one symbol of MPL. Explain why the proposition you made is false in the given model.
Solution
Here is a proposition that is false in this model:
∀z(Bz → ∃y¬Fy)
This proposition can be read as "For all z, if z is in B then there exists a y such that y is not in F".
In the given model, B includes 3 and 4. F is an empty set, which means no elements are in F. Therefore, for any y, ¬Fy is true.
However, the proposition is false because it states that for all z in B, there exists a y such that y is not in F. In this model, there is no such y for z=3 and z=4, because all elements are in F. Therefore, the proposition is false.

A builder will build five houses in New Housing Scheme on a street that currently has no houses. The builder will select from seven different models of houses: L,M,N,O,P,Q and R. The Development Authority has placed the following restrictions on the builder: No model can be selected for more than one house. Either model O must be selected or model R must be selected, but both cannot be selected. If model Q is selected, then model N cannot be selected. If model M is selected, then model O cannot be selected. Which of the following is an acceptable combination of models that can be selected for the street? (A) L, M, N, P, Q (B) L, M, P, Q, R (C) L, N, P,Q, R (D) M, N, O, P, Q (E) N, O, P, Q, R
