|dw:1459030927751:dw|

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

c I think

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline M& X \\ \hline H& Y \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

but in book option a.) is given correct

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

If M is X then H is Y If M is Y then H is X

rishavraj (rishavraj):

yup Manoj is X

rishavraj (rishavraj):

coz he is telling the truth

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

If M is Y then H is X why is this not correct?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

but in my opinion c.) is correct

rishavraj (rishavraj):

Manoj is Y it means it is lying -_-

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

yes c is corrcet

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

yeah so he is lying which means one of them isn't type y which means heamant is X

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

if \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline M& X \\ \hline H& X \\ \hline \end{array} \end{align}}\) this is then it violates the line "at least one of us is Y"

rishavraj (rishavraj):

@mathmath333 Manoj said tht one of them is Y....which is truth..so Manoj is X

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

and how can you say that maybe both of them are liars

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

you cant actually say that his statement is correct until you have other data

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

"Manoj said tht one of them is Y....which is truth..so Manoj is X" then hemnant must be Y

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

No okay got it

rishavraj (rishavraj):

@mathmath333 yup :))

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Whether Manoj lies or tell the truth his statement remains exactly the same

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

One of us is type X becomes One of us isn't type X Same statement which means he is still telling the truth

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

type Y*

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

by the way what is the negation of ""at least one of us is Y""

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

at least one of us isn't Y

rishavraj (rishavraj):

see if u consider Hemant X ...means Manoj is Y .... bcoz of the statement .... bt if he is telling truth how could he be Y @mathmath333

rishavraj (rishavraj):

@mathmath333 if u consider C...means both are X ....means Manoj is telling the truth so where is tht Y

rishavraj (rishavraj):

so it would be A)Manoj is X

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

No what C part was saying is that both condition in differenet situations can be correct

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

ok if manoj is X then what would be hemant X or Y >

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

heament will be Y

rishavraj (rishavraj):

its 'and' which means both are X

rishavraj (rishavraj):

@mathmath333 now u get it :)) Manoj is X and HHemant is Y

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

i think the negation of " ""at least one of us is Y"" is None of us is Y

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

no and doesn't mean that and operator

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

no all of us are y negattion would be none of us are y

rishavraj (rishavraj):

at least one means kam se kam ek .... .... and u see if both are Y ...then how coud u consider tht statement true

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

can he understand that @rishavraj

rishavraj (rishavraj):

@FaiqRaees obviously he can :P I have taught him a bit of hindi .lmao

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

is which option is correct ?

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

a

rishavraj (rishavraj):

wht say @mathmath333 I told A is correct -_- remember :P

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Because if he lies he creates a paradox which means he have to tell the truth becoming x himself

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

ok i think a.) is correct !!!!!!!!!!!

rishavraj (rishavraj):

cool...xD

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

sigh

rishavraj (rishavraj):

ab thora sharma bhi lo.... lol. @mathmath333
