Solution

The statement "Every comedian is funny" can be translated into logical form as follows:

∀x (C(x) → F(x))

This reads as "For all x, if x is a comedian then x is funny". This is under the assumption that the domain consists of all people.

Here's the step by step breakdown:

  1. ∀x: This symbol represents "for all" or "for every". In this case, it means "for every person x".

  2. C(x): This is a predicate that represents "x is a comedian".

  3. →: This symbol represents "implies" or "then". It's used to connect the condition (x is a comedian) to the result (x is funny).

  4. F(x): This is a predicate that represents "x is funny".

So, putting it all together, ∀x (C(x) → F(x)) means "For every person x, if x is a comedian, then x is funny". This is the logical form of the statement "Every comedian is funny".
