Here's the Solution to this Question

If the statement q ∧ r is true, then q is true and r is true. Since (q → [¬p ∨ s]) ∧ [¬s → r] is true, we conclude that q → [¬p ∨ s] is true and ¬s → r is also must be true. Taking into account that q → [¬p ∨ s] is true and q is true, we conclude that ¬p ∨ s is also must be true. Since r is true, the implication ¬s → r is true for any truth value of s. Taking into account that ¬p ∨ s is false if and only if p is true and s is false, we conclude that (q → [¬p ∨ s]) ∧ [¬s → r] is true if and only if p is true and s is true or p is false and s is false or p is false and s is true.
