For the statement "M got out after either V or G but not both," how should it be represented in formal logic?

V̰GM AND GMV
VG...M...G/V
V//G...M...G/V
V...M...G AND G...M...V

The correct answer is: V̰GM AND GMV

The correct representation of the statement "M got out after either V or G but not both" in formal logic is shown in choice A. The symbol "AND" indicates that the statement includes both conditions, which is not the case here. In choice B, the ellipsis (...) is not a commonly used symbol in formal logic. Choice C uses "//" which isn't a standard logical operator. In choice D, the use of "AND" implies a combination of both G and V, contradicting the original statement. Therefore, choice A accurately captures the logic of the original statement by stating that M follows either V or G, but not both.
