Prove the following using hypothetical reasoning.
¬(a ∧ ¬b)
¬(b ∧ d)
∴ (d → ¬a)
What I have done so far is:
1. ¬(a ∧ ¬b)
2. ¬(b ∧ d)
3. d → ¬a Assumption for hypothetical reasoning
4. ¬a ∨ ¬¬b De Morgan (1)
5. ¬a ∨ b Double Negation (4)
6. a → b Implication Equivalence (5)
7. ¬b ∨ ¬d De Morgan (2)
What do I do next? Please help.
Instead of going from $\neg a ∨ b$ to $a\rightarrow b$, go to $\neg b\rightarrow\neg a$. Similarly, go from $\neg b ∨ \neg d$ to $d \rightarrow \neg b$. These two together give $d\rightarrow \neg a$.
