Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Derive the validity of universal form of part(a) of the elimination rule from the validity of universal instantiation and the valid argument called elimination in Section 2.3.

P(x)∨Q(x)

~Q(x)

∵ P(x)

Universal Instantiation has the following argument form

∀ x ∈ D, P (x)

P(a) for a particular a∈D

Universal Elimination Rule:

∀x, P(x)

∵~ P(a)

Here is a particular value.

P(a) For a particular  a∈D

Since the universal elimination is same as universal instantiation.

Therefore, Universal elimination is valid when universal instantiation and elimination rule are  valid
