The options are:


(A)\\eg p \land (f \lor h)\\(B)(\\eg p \land f) \lor h\\(C)\\eg p \land f \land h\\(D)\\eg( p \land f) \lor h

Answer:


(B)(\\eg p \land f) \lor h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the propositional variables:

  • f: The student got an A on the final.
  • h: The student turned in all the homework.
  • p: The student is on academic probation

The negation of p,
\\eg p=$The student is not on academic probation

  • A AND B (Logical conjunction) is written as:
    A \land B
  • A OR B (Logical disjunction) is written as:
    A \lor B

Therefore, the logical expression for the statement:

"The student is not on academic probation and the student got an A on the final " is:
\\eg p \land f

Therefore, the logical expression for the given statement

"The student is not on academic probation and the student got an A on the final or turned in all the homework."

is:
(\\eg p \land f) \lor h

The correct option is B.
