Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFIf the proposition "Some frogs are not mammals" is given as false, then the following proposition can be immediately inferred to be false: No frogs are mammals.
Important Points
- This is because if "Some frogs are not mammals" is false, it means that there are no frogs that are not mammals, or in other words, all frogs are mammals.
- The proposition "No frogs are mammals" directly contradicts this by asserting that there are no frogs that are mammals.
- Therefore, if "Some frogs are not mammals" is false, then "No frogs are mammals" must also be false.
- The truth values of the other options cannot be immediately determined solely based on the given information, as they are not directly related to the proposition "Some frogs are not mammals."
- Additional information or logical reasoning would be required to determine the truth values of those propositions.
Hence, No frogs are mammals is the correct answer.
