Let Γ and Δ be sets of sentences in Relational Logic. Let φ and ψ be closed sentences in Relational Logic. State whether each of the following statements is true or false.

a. If Δ ⊨ ∀x.(p(x) ∨ q(x)) and Δ ⊨ ∃xp(x), then Δ ⊨ ∃x.q(x)  
b. If Δ ⊨ ∀x.(p(x) ⇒ q(x)) and Δ ⊨ ∃x.p(x), then Δ ⊨ ∃x.(p(x) ∧ q(x)).  
c. If Δ ⊨ ∀x.(p(x) ⇒ q(x)) and Δ ⊨ ∀x.(q(x) ⇒ r(x)), then Δ ⊨ ∀x.(p(x) ⇒ r(x)).  
d. If Δ ⊭ ∃x.p(x), then Δ ⊨ ∀xp(x).  
e. If Δ ⊨ ∀x.(p(x) ⇒ q(x)) and Δ ⊨ ∃xq(x), then Δ ⊨ ∃xp(x).
