Mathematics Question on mathematical reasoning

If the truth value of the statement
(P∧(∼R))->((∼R)∧Q)
is F , then the truth value of which of the following is F?

A

P∨Q->∼R

B

R∨Q->∼P

C

∼(P∨Q)->∼R

D

∼(R∨Q)->∼P

Answer

∼(R∨Q)->∼P

Explanation

Solution

The correct answer is(D): ∼(R∨Q)→∼P.

P(R)X\underbrace{P∧(∼R)X→} ((R)Q)Y\underbrace{((∼R)∧Q)Y } = False
x y

XY = False

P∧∼R = T and (∼R)∧Q = F
⇒ P = T
∼R = T ⇒ R = F
⇒ P = T, Q = F and R = F
T∧Q = F
⇒ Q = F
Now ∼(R∨Q)→∼P
∼(F∨F)→∼F
F→F = False
