Simplifying the statement using logical equivalence
0
$begingroup$
Question
Here is what I have tried:
- From my textbook, I have learned about the precedence of logical operators. It says to deal with negations first.
- If we were to do the negations first, I end up with:
My attempt
- And from here on out I'm kind of lost on what to do next

Expand the expression using the facts that $(a wedge b) vee c Leftrightarrow (a vee c) wedge (b vee c)$ and $(a vee b) wedge c Leftrightarrow (a wedge c) vee (b wedge c)$.

I tried to follow your advice. The final answer I came up with is (r ∨ p) after applying the identity laws. Can anyone confirm I have done this right?
