1. Using the database demonstrated in class, and the following simple statements search for (paranthesis required) answer the following questions. Let
   • d = death penalty = 5132 
   • c = capital punishment = 5441
   • n = New York State = 237839

     Search for:

     1. n /\ ( d \/ c ) = 421
     2. ( n /\ d ) \/ c =5540
     3. n /\ d \/ c =5540
     4. ( n /\ d) \/ ( n /\ c) =1559
     You must record the number of hits and exactly what you entered as your search criteria.
2. In part 1, which searches yield the same results and why? b and c have the same results because it’s the same question just written 2 different ways.
3. For each of the searches above, determine which Venn diagram corresponds to to the search:
   1. b /\ c
   2. b /\ c
   3. 
   4.  =(n/\c)/\d 
   5. n V d 
   6. n /\ d
