ANSWER:

Solution:

Step1

Given that

Let us assume that the domain of the propositional function P(x, y) consists of pairs x and y, where x is 1, 2, or 3 and y is 1, 2, or 3.

Step2

To find

Write out these propositions using disjunctions and conjunctions.

Step3

We have to know about

Disjunctions:-It is a compound statement that can be formed by joining two statement by OR operator.Symbol “”.

Conjunctions:-It is a compound statement that can be formed by joining two statement by AND operator.Symbol “”.

Step4

We have

 The domain of the propositional function P(x, y) consists of pairs x and y, where x is 1, 2, or 3 and y
