Question

Select the conclusion that follows in a single step from the given premises.

Given the following premises:
1. (J • ∼N) ∨ T
2. ∼(J • ∼N)
3. ∼T
a. J • ∼N 1, 3, DS
b. T 1, 2, DS
c. ∼J 2, Simp
d. ∼J ∨ ~N 2, DM
e. J • (∼N ∨ T) 1, Asso

Answer 1

The correct conclusion that follows in a single step from the given premises is J • ∼N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The argument consists of three premises:

1. (J • ∼N) ∨ T
2. ∼(J • ∼N)
3. ∼T

We can use these premises to draw the conclusion by applying the disjunctive syllogism.

1. J • ∼N

Therefore, the correct answer is option a. J • ∼N which follows in a single step from the given premises.
