contrapositive to rewrite the statements in this question in if-then form in
two ways.
43. Doing homework regularly is a necessary condition for
Jim to pass the course.
Use the logical equivalences p →q ≡∼p ∨
q and p ↔ q ≡ (∼p
∨
q) ∧
(∼q
∨
p) to rewrite the given statement forms without using the symbol → or ↔, and (b) use the logical
equivalence p ∨ q ≡∼(∼p
∧
∼q)
to rewrite each statement form using only ∧ and ∼.
49. (p →r) ↔ (q →r)

Use modus ponens or modus tollens to fill in the blanks in
the arguments of 1-5 so as to produce valid inferences.

Use truth tables to determine whether the argument forms in this
question are valid. Indicate which columns represent the premises and which
represent the conclusion, and include a sentence explaining how the truth table
supports your answer. Your explanation should show that you understand what it
means for a form of argument to be valid or invalid.

context for questions:
Mastermind is a game in which you have to guess a hidden code made of 4 “color pegs” (a tuple), from a set of 7 colors {R,G,B,Y,W,K,O}. The code maker responds to your guess with smaller “key pegs,” which are black or white (a multiset) and indicate exact or color matches with the code. (More precise definition below.)
several students were asked to answer/fix the chat gpt mistakes of questions. an example is listed below. This only serves to give context for the questions in the pdf. there were a bunch of questions like this, but this is one example.
question #1.
You are playing Mastermind by making a guess that is a 4-tuple drawn from a set of 7 color pegs, {R,B,G,Y,W,K,O} (order matters, repeats allowed). The codemaker responds with a multiset 0 to 4 black or white key pegs (order doesn’t matter; repeats allowed). Each b indicates some guess peg matches the code in position and color; w indicates some guess peg has a right color in the wrong position. (A more precise statement of the rules is in CW#30.)
You want to know how many codes are consistent with the response to your guess, because that is the first step to narrowing this down to one code.
Here is your guess and the response:
