Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is e → (a ∧ (b ∨ p) ∧ r)

Step-by-step explanation:

To be eligible to be president you need three requirements.

1. You are at least 35 years old ("a" according to question).
2. You were born in the U.S.A ("b") OR At the time of your birth, both of your parents where citizens ("p").
3. You have lived at least 14 years in the U.S.A ("r").

The second requirement can be met by two statements 'b' or 'p'.

Therefore, we can express that statement with this terms, using logical connectives shown in the picture below, such as:

e → (a ∧ (b ∨ p) ∧ r) .
