Problem 5
I'll use an arrow symbol in place of the horseshoe symbol.
Number | Statement | Line(s) Used | Reason |
1 | F --> ~U | | |
2 | ~F --> P | | |
3 | F v ~F | | |
:. | ~U v P | | |
4 | ~~U --> ~F | 1 | Transposition |
5 | U --> ~F | 4 | Double Negation |
6 | U --> P | 5,2 | Hypothetical Syllogism |
7 | ~U v P | 6 | Material Implication |
Note: A much quicker pathway is to use the Constructive Dilemma rule.

Problem 6
Number | Statement | Line(s) Used | Reason |
1 | (J v F) v M | | |
2 | (J v M) --> ~P | | |
3 | ~F | | |
:. | ~(F v P) | | |
4 | (F v J) v M | 1 | Commutation |
5 | F v (J v M) | 4 | Associative |
6 | J v M | 5,3 | Disjunctive Syllogism |
7 | ~P | 2,6 | Modus Ponens |
8 | ~F & ~P | 3,7 | Conjunction |
9 | ~(F v P) | 8 | De Morgan’s Law |
