Determine which of the following formulas are true in elementary arithmetic, and explain what they mean:

?
(a)

(∀x)(∃y)(∃z)(A(x,y,z)∧M(x,y,z))(\forall x)(\exists y)(\exists z)(A(x, y, z) \wedge M(x, y, z));

(b)

(∀x)(∃y)(A(y,y,x)∨(∃z)(A(y,y,z)∧A(z,1,x)))(\forall x)(\exists y)(A(y, y, x) \vee (\exists z)(A(y, y, z) \wedge A(z, 1, x)));

Determine which of the following formulas are true in Tarski's geometry (problem 126 on the opposite page), and explain what they mean:

?
(a)

The signature Σ\Sigma is taken from example 28 on p. 141 — the three-place predicate symbol VV, where V(f,x,y)V(f,x,y) means "the value of the function ff at the argument xx equals yy," and the two-place predicate symbol DD, where D(f,g)D(f,g) means "ff is the derivative of gg"; the interpretation consists of real numbers and infinitely differentiable functions on them. Determine which of the following formulas are true in this interpretation, and explain what they mean:

The signature Σ\Sigma consists of the two-place predicate symbol E(2)E^{(2)}, the individual variables a,…,ga, \ldots , g, and others. The interpretation G\mathfrak {G} is depicted in fig. 16; an arrow from xx to yy means that (x,y)∈E(x, y) \in E (such interpretations are called graphs; they will be studied in detail in chapter 9 and beyond). Determine which of the following formulas are true in this interpretation, and explain what they mean:
