Question B4: This question looks at how there can be more than one way to express an idea in logical notation. For this question, we will use O(x) to denote the predicate "x is odd" and E(x) to denote the predicate "x is even". We know from class that O(x) = ¬E(x). Suppose m, n, and o are positive integers. Let p be the statement all of m, n, and o are even (a) One way to express p in logical notation is to write E(m) ^ E(n) ^ E (o). Use De Morgan's Law to give an expression for p. (b) Describe a universe so that p is equivalent to the quantified statement "Vx(E(x))”.
