Solution

To solve this problem, we need to break it down into smaller parts and solve each part step by step.

  1. First, let's look at the part inside the parentheses: q∧s. The symbol ∧ stands for "and", so q∧s means "q and s". We know that q is true and s is false. In an "and" statement, both parts must be true for the whole statement to be true. Since s is false, q∧s is also false.

  2. Next, let's look at the ~ symbol. This stands for "not", so ~q∧s means "not (q and s)". We've already determined that q∧s is false, so ~q∧s is the opposite of that, which is true.

  3. Finally, let's look at the whole statement: ~(q∧s)∧r. This means "(not (q and s)) and r". We've already determined that ~(q∧s) is true, and we know that r is true. In an "and" statement, both parts must be true for the whole statement to be true. Since both parts are true, the whole statement is true.

So, the truth value of ~(q∧s)∧r is true.
