1. Using the database demonstrated in class, and the following simple statments for (paranthesis required) answer the following questions. Let
d = death penalty 5132
c = capital punishment 5440
n = New York State 237839
Search for:
- n /\ ( d \/ c ) 421 NYS and (death penaltiy or capital punishment)
- ( n /\ d ) \/ c 5539 (NYS and death penaltiy) or capital punichment
- n /\ d \/ c 5539 NYS and death penaltiy or capital punichment
- ( n /\ d) \/ ( n /\ c) 421 (NYS and death penaltiy) or (NYS and capital punichment)
2. In part 1, which searches yield the same results and why?
The search for a & d come up with the same result, the distributive law was used.
The search for b & c come up with the same result as well.
3. For each of the searches above, detemine which Venn diagram corresponds to to the search:
a.
b. (n /\ d) \/ c = n /\ d \/ c
c. n /\ ( d \/ c) = ( n /\ d) \/ ( n /\ c)
d.
e.
f.
