The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the truth values of the statements P, Q, and R, and then analyze the given options based on these truth values. ### Step 1: Determine the truth values of P, Q, and R 1. **Statement P**: "5 is a prime number." - This statement is **True** (T). 2. **Statement Q**: "7 is a factor of 192." - To check this, we divide 192 by 7. - \(192 \div 7 = 27.42857\) (not an integer) - Therefore, this statement is **False** (F). 3. **Statement R**: "The LCM of 5 and 7 is 35." - The LCM of two prime numbers is their product. - \(LCM(5, 7) = 5 \times 7 = 35\) - Hence, this statement is **True** (T). ### Step 2: Summary of truth values - P: True (T) - Q: False (F) - R: True (T) ### Step 3: Evaluate the options Now we will evaluate each option using the truth values we have determined. **Option (a)**: \(P \lor (\neg Q \land R)\) - \(\neg Q\) (not Q) is True (since Q is False). - Therefore, \(\neg Q \land R\) is \(T \land T = T\). - Now, \(P \lor T = T \lor T = T\). - **Result**: True (T) **Option (b)**: \(\neg P \land (\neg Q \land R)\) - \(\neg P\) is False (since P is True). - Therefore, \(\neg P \land (\neg Q \land R) = F \land T = F\). - **Result**: False (F) **Option (c)**: \((P \lor Q) \land \neg R\) - \(P \lor Q = T \lor F = T\). - \(\neg R\) is False (since R is True). - Therefore, \(T \land F = F\). - **Result**: False (F) **Option (d)**: \(\neg P \land (\neg Q \land R)\) - This is the same as option (b), which we already evaluated. - **Result**: False (F) ### Conclusion The only true statement among the options is: - **Option (a)**: \(P \lor (\neg Q \land R)\) is **True**. ### Final Answer The true statement is (a).
