Type I: Choose the correct answer from the given four options indicated(1 points each.)
1. Which of the following is not propositions?
(a) All Maths-1011 lectures take place in LR-8. (c) Is Ethiopia East of Africa?
(b) 5 is prime but 7 is not prime. (d) All cows eat grass.
4. For real number x and y , which one of the following statement is true?
(a) the set of all prime numbers between 15 and 19 (c) {x : |x| < −5, x belongs toN}
(b) {x : x < 5, x > 6} (d) Both (b) & (c)
6. If A and B are two sets such that n(A) = 24, n(B) = 22, and n(A ∪ B) = 38 then n(A − B) equal to
Type II: File the blank space(Write the correct answer on the space provide)(1 points each.)
1. Let p represent a false statement, and let q and r represent true statements. Then the truth value of the compound
statement ¬(p ∧ q) ⇒ (¬r ∨ ¬p) is .
2. Assigen the truth value
(a) (∃x ∈ R)(∀y ∈ Z)(xy < 1) (b) (∀x ∈ Z)(∃y ∈ R)(xy < 1)
3. Let U = {1, 2, 3, ..., 20}, A = {3, 5, 7, 9, 11}, B = {7, 9, 11, 13}, C = {11, 13, 15}, and D = {15, 17}.Then nd

Type III: Work-Out(Show all necessarily steps clearly.)
1. (3 points)Use the logical equivalences show that ¬(p ∨ ¬(p ∧ q)) is a contradiction.
2. (4 points) Using truth table method, detrmine whether the agreement p ∨ q , p ⇒ ¬q , p ⇒ r ` r is valid or invalid
3. (4 points) Use mathematical induction prove that 9n+1 − 8n − 9 is divisible by 8 for n ≥ 1 .
