The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given statements is not a tautology, we need to analyze each statement by constructing truth tables and checking the truth values of each expression. A tautology is a statement that is always true, regardless of the truth values of its components. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Tautology**: A tautology is a logical statement that is true in every possible interpretation. If any interpretation results in false, then it is not a tautology. 2. **Identify the Statements**: We have four logical expressions (let's denote them as A, B, C, D). We need to check each one to see if it is a tautology. 3. **Construct Truth Tables**: For each statement, we will create a truth table to evaluate the truth values. 4. **Evaluate Each Statement**: - **Statement A**: \( p \land q \land r \implies \neg p \lor \neg q \lor r \) - Create a truth table for \( p \), \( q \), and \( r \). - Calculate \( p \land q \land r \). - Calculate \( \neg p \), \( \neg q \), and \( \neg p \lor \neg q \lor r \). - Check the implication \( p \land q \land r \implies \neg p \lor \neg q \lor r \). - Result: All values are true, so this is a tautology. - **Statement B**: \( p \land q \land r \land \neg q \land \neg r \) - Create a truth table. - Calculate \( p \land q \land r \) and \( \neg q \land \neg r \). - Check the conjunction. - Result: This statement has false values, so it is not a tautology. - **Statement C**: \( p \land \neg q \land r \implies \neg p \lor q \lor r \) - Create a truth table. - Calculate \( p \land \neg q \land r \). - Calculate \( \neg p \lor q \lor r \). - Check the implication. - Result: All values are true, so this is a tautology. - **Statement D**: \( p \land q \land \neg r \implies r \) - Create a truth table. - Calculate \( p \land q \land \neg r \). - Check the implication with \( r \). - Result: This statement has false values, so it is not a tautology. 5. **Conclusion**: After evaluating all statements, we find that Statements B and D are not tautologies. However, the question asks for one statement that is not a tautology. Therefore, we can conclude that **Statement B** is one of the statements that is not a tautology. ### Final Answer: The statement that is not a tautology is **Statement B**.
