Question:

If \(\{(\mathrm{p} \wedge \sim \mathrm{q}) \wedge(\mathrm{p} \wedge \mathrm{r})\} \rightarrow \sim \mathrm{p} \vee \mathrm{q}\) has truth value false then truth values of the statements \(p, q, r\) are respectively

Show Hint

An implication is false only when the antecedent is true and the consequent is false.

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Understanding the Concept
\(P\rightarrow Q\) is false only when \(P\) is true and \(Q\) is false.

Step 2: Consequent False
\(\sim p\vee q\) is false only if \(\sim p\) and \(q\) are both false.
So \(p=\text{T}\) and \(q=\text{F}\).

Step 3: Antecedent True
\((p\wedge\sim q)\wedge(p\wedge r)\) is true only if \(p\), \(\sim q\) and \(r\) are all true.
With \(p=\text{T}\), \(\sim q=\text{T}\), we need \(r=\text{T}\).

Step 4: Compare the options
So \(p,q,r\) are T, F, T, which is the last option.

Final Answer:
The truth values of p, q, r are T, F, T. \[ \boxed{\text{(D) }\text{T, F, T}} \]
