Is it true that $((pland q rightarrow r) land lnot(p rightarrow r)) rightarrow (q rightarrow r)$?

Is this a sound inference rule?



$$((p land q) rightarrow r) land lnot(p rightarrow r)) rightarrow (q rightarrow r)$$



So far I've rewritten it to
$$((p rightarrow r) land lnot(p rightarrow r)) rightarrow (q rightarrow r)$$



It looks similar to the syllogism rule, but I'm not sure. Any help?

    $(pto r)landneg(pto r)$ is a contradiction. The usual proof laws allow you to infer anything whatever from a contradiction.

@GEdgar's suggestion was spot on. If you write a truth tabe to consider $2^3 = 8$ possible truth-value assignments for $(p, q, r)$, you will see that your given expression is, in fact, a tautology, meaning that no matter what truth values you assign to $p, q$ and $r$, the propostion will always be true:



enter image description here



Hence, indeed, the implication is a valid and sound inference rule.

    This is weird. I mean, yes, it is a tautology; and I can even verify from first principles that you cannot make the implication false. But I still balk at it; it seems to say that if two things imply a third and the first by itself does not, then the second by itself does. But I keep thinking about situations in which two statements imply a third in conjunction, but neither of them does by itself. E.g., $p=“aleq b”$, $q=“aneq b”$, $r=“alt b”$. Certainly, $aleq bland aneq brightarrow alt b$, and $neg(aleq b rightarrow alt b)$, but $neg (aneq brightarrow alt b)$.

    This is weird. I mean, yes, it is a tautology; and I can even verify from first principles that you cannot make the implication false. But I still balk at it; it seems to say that if two things imply a third and the first by itself does not, then the second by itself does. But I keep thinking about situations in which two statements imply a third in conjunction, but neither of them does by itself. E.g., $p=“aleq b”$, $q=“aneq b”$, $r=“alt b”$. Certainly, $aleq bland aneq brightarrow alt b$, and $neg(aleq b rightarrow alt b)$, but $neg (aneq brightarrow alt b)$.
