11^3+4t= p(mod 10)

Prove that the premises P → Q, Q → R, S → ¬R and P ∧ S are inconsistent.

1.)Determine if the proposition is satisfiable or not by providing any possible combination of inputs that yields a TRUE result.

(p ∧ q) ∨ (¬p ∧¬q)→r


2.)Prove or disapprove the given proposition using a truth table or rules of logic.

¬(¬p ∧ q) ∨ q ⇔ q → p
