CORRECT ANSWER is option2Explanation:For C and E to be true, the assertion should be P(c) ∧ Q(c). Hence, this is not a correct inferenceIn predicate logic, universal generalization STATES that if ⊢ P ( x ) {\displaystyle \vdash \!P(x)} has been derived, then ⊢ ∀ x P ( x ) {\displaystyle \vdash \!\forall x\,P(x)} can be derived.
