Question

Use truth tables to test the following argument forms for validity: 1. $p$ $$ \therefore p \underline{p} $$ $$ \begin{aligned} & \text { 2. } p \vee q \\ & \qquad p \\ & \therefore \sim q \\ & \text { 3. } p \& q \\ & \therefore \sim(p \subseteq q) \end{aligned} $$ 4. $\sim(p \& q)$ $$ \therefore p \vee q $$ 5. $p \vee q$ $$ \therefore p \vee q $$ 6. $p \vee q$

   Use truth tables to test the following argument forms for validity:
1. $p$
$$
\therefore p \underline{p}
$$
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \text { 2. } p \vee q \\
& \qquad p \\
& \therefore \sim q \\
& \text { 3. } p \& q \\
& \therefore \sim(p \subseteq q)
\end{aligned}
$$
4. $\sim(p \& q)$
$$
\therefore p \vee q
$$
5. $p \vee q$
$$
\therefore p \vee q
$$
6. $p \vee q$
