The correct Answer is:
To convert the statement "Neither he is a carpenter nor he is making a table" into symbols using the given definitions, we can follow these steps: 1. **Identify the Statements**: - Let \( P \) represent "He is a carpenter." - Let \( Q \) represent "He is making a table." 2. **Negate the Statements**: - The phrase "neither he is a carpenter" translates to "he is not a carpenter," which can be represented as \( \neg P \). - The phrase "nor he is making a table" translates to "he is not making a table," which can be represented as \( \neg Q \). 3. **Combine the Negated Statements**: - The conjunction of the two negated statements can be expressed using the logical operator "and." Therefore, we combine them as: \[ \neg P \land \neg Q \] 4. **Final Symbolic Representation**: - Thus, the complete symbolic representation of the statement "Neither he is a carpenter nor he is making a table" is: \[ \neg P \land \neg Q \]
