Solution

To express the predicates in unambiguous English, we need to clarify the meaning of the symbols and their arrangement in the context of the statement R(x,y)= R(x, y) = "x relies upon y."

  1. Expressing โˆ€x โˆƒy R(x, y):

    • This expression states that "For every x, there exists a y such that x relies upon y."
    • In plain English, it means: "Every individual x relies upon at least one individual y."
  2. Expressing โˆ€y โˆƒx R(x, y):

    • This expression indicates that "For every y, there exists an x such that x relies upon y."
    • In clearer terms: "Every individual y is relied upon by at least one individual x."
  3. Expressing โˆ€x โˆ€y R(x, y):

    • This expression signifies that "For every x and for every y, x relies upon y."
    • Thus, in unambiguous English: "Every individual x relies upon every individual y."

Summary

In summary, the translations of the logical expressions into unambiguous English are as follows: a. "Every individual x relies upon at least one individual y." b. "Every individual y is relied upon by at least one individual x." c. "Every individual x relies upon every individual y."
