Question

Put each of the following sentences in symbolic form. Be sure to specify exactly which sentence is represented by each capital letter, and pay special attention to the placement of the negation. If the sentence could be interpreted in more than one way, symbolize each interpretation and describe a context in which it would be natural to interpret it in each way. 1. It won't rain tomorrow. 2. It might not rain tomorrow. 3. There is no chance that it will rain tomorrow. 4. I believe that it won't rain tomorrow. 5. Joe is not too smart or else he's very clever. 6. Kristin is not smart or rich. 7. Sometimes you feel like a nut; sometimes you don't. (from an advertisement for Mounds and Almond Joy candies, which are made by the same company and are exactly alike except that only one of them has a nut)
