H % J = H < J
J © N = J = N
N @ R = N > R
Therefore, H < J = N > R
Conclusions:
I. R % J = R < J ( True )
II. H @ J =H > J ( Not true)
III. N @ J =N > H (True)
2. (5)
M % J = M > J
J $ T = J = T
T © N =T = N
Therefore, M > J = T = N
Conclusions:
I. N # J = N = J ( true )
II. T % M = T < M ( true)
III. M @ N =M > N ( true)
3. (3)
D © K -> D = K
K # F -> K = F
F @ P -> F > P
Therefore, D = K = F > P
Conclusions:
I. P @ D -> P > D ( Not true )
II. K # P -> K = P ( Not true )
III.F $ D -> F = D ( True )
4. (4)
K # N -> K = N
N $ T -> N = T
T % J -> T > J
Therefore, K = N = T > J
Conclusions:
