\section{Section 1: Translations in Truth Functional Logic}
Using the following symbolization key, please symbolize the following sentences.
$B$: Your shifters aren't compatible with 12 speeds in the back.
$C$: Campagnolo doesn't offer a 52T cog.
$F$: Bikes really are "machines for freedom".
$M$: You need a monster cog in the back.
$O$: You ought to install a 1x drivetrain on your bike.
$S$: You're better off with a Shimano drivetrain.
$V$: You can find a vintage SunTour derailleur on eBay.
\begin{enumerate}
\item You ought to install a 1x drivetrain on your bike only if you need a monster cog in the back.\\
\begin{equation}
O\implies M
\end{equation}
\item If you need a monster cog in the back but Compagnolo doesn't offer a 52T cog, then you're better off with a Shimano drivetrain.\\
\begin{equation}
(M\land C)\implies S
\end{equation}
\item Either your shifters aren't compatible with 12 speeds in the back and you ought to install a 1x drivetrain on your bike, or Campagnolo doesn't offer a 52T cog and you're better off with a Shimano drivetrain.\\
\begin{equation}
(B\land O)\lor(C\land S)
\end{equation}
\item You ought to install a 1x drivetrain on your bike if either Campagnolo doesn't offer a 52T cog or your shifters aren't compatible with 12 speeds in the back (but not both).\\
\begin{equation}
(\neg[C\iff B])\implies O
\end{equation}
\item If a) you're better off with a Shimano drivetrain only if your shifters aren't compatible with 12 speeds in the back, and b) you ought to install a 1x drivetrain on your bike unless you cannot find a vintage SunTour derailleur on eBay, then bikes really are "machines of freedom" only if you don't need a monster cog in the back.
\begin{equation}
([B\implies S]\land[O\lor V])\implies(M\implies F)
\end{equation}
\end{enumerate}

\section{Section 2: Translation in First Order Logic}
Using the following symbolization key symbolize the following sentences.
Domain: Songs
$Cx$: x was written by Tracy Chapman
$Sx$: x is, without a doubt, one of the best songs of the 1980s
$Bx$: x was recently covered by Black Pumas
$f$: "Fast Car"
\begin{enumerate}
\item "Fast Car" is, without a doubt, one of the best songs of the 1980s if and only if it was recently covered by Black Pumas.\\
\begin{equation}
Sf\iff Bf
\end{equation}
\item Tracy Chapman wrote a song that is, without a doubt, one of the best songs of the 1980s.\\
\begin{equation}
\exists x(Cx\land Sx)
\end{equation}
\item Black Pumas recently covered a Tracy Chapman song that is, without a doubt, one of the best songs of the 1980s.\\
\begin{equation}
\exists x(Cx\land Sx\land Bx)
\end{equation}
\item Every song recently covered by Black Pumas was written by Tracy Chapman.\\
\begin{equation}
\forall x(Bx\implies Cx)
\end{equation}
\item Not every song recently covered by Black Pumas was written by Tracy Chapman.\\
\begin{equation}
\neg(\forall x[Bx\implies Cx])
\end{equation}
\item No song recently covered by Black Pumas was written by Tracy Chapman.\\
\begin{equation}
\neg(\exists x[Bx\land Cx])
\end{equation}
\item If Black Pumas recently covered a song that is, without a doubt, one of the best songs of the 1980s, then "Fast Car" is, without a doubt, one of the best songs of the 1980s.\\
\begin{equation}
\exists x(Bx\land Sx)\implies Sf
\end{equation}
\item Either "Fast Car" was not recently covered by Black Pumas, or there's a song that is, without a doubt, neither one of the best songs of 1980s not written by Tracy Chapman.\\
\begin{equation}
Bf\lor(\exists x[(\neg Sx)\land(\neg Cx)])
\end{equation}
\end{enumerate}

\section{Section 3: Truth Table}
Is the following a valid argument?
\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
P\land R\\
\neg R\lor Q\\
\therefore P\implies Q
\end{split}
\end{equation}
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c||c|c|c||c|c|c||c|c|c|}
\hline
$P$ & $Q$ & $R$ & \multicolumn{3}{c||}{$P\land R$} & \multicolumn{3}{c||}{$\neg R\lor Q$} & \multicolumn{3}{c|}{$P\implies Q$}\\
\hline
1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1\\
\hline
1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1\\
\hline
1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0\\
\hline
1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0\\
\hline
0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1\\
\hline
0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1\\
\hline
0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0\\
\hline
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
There are two lines in the truth table where the conclusion is false. In both of these lines, the premises are not both true. Therefore, this argument is valid.
