Explanation:
A conjunction is a statement formed by adding two statements with the connector AND. The symbol for conjunction is ‘∧’ which can be read as ‘and’. When two statements p and q are joined in a statement, the conjunction will be expressed symbolically as p∧q. If both the combining statements are true then this statement will be true otherwise, it is false.
Example 1: Let r: 5 be a rational number and s: 15 be a prime number. Is it a conjunction?
Solution:
Given that r: 5 is a rational number. This proposition is true.
s: 15 is a prime number. This proposition is false as 15 is a composite number.
Therefore, as per the truth table, r and s is a false statement.
So, r ∧ s = F
Example 2: Let a: x is greater than 9 and b: x be a prime number. Is it a conjunction?
Solution:
Since x is a variable whose value we don’t know. Let us define a range for a and b.
To find the range let us take certain values for x;
When x= 6: a is false so is b hence a ∧ b is false.
When x= 3: a is false but b is true. But still, a ∧ b is false.
When x= 10: a is true but b is false. But still, a ∧ b is false.
When x= 11: a is true and b is true. Hence, a ∧ b is true.
Hence the conjunction a and b is only true when x is a prime number greater than 9.
