Jordan Simpson · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : E, Explanation :  The statement begins with a universal quantifier (x), indicating that it is making a claim about all members of the domain. The rest of the statement is a conditional statement (if-then) linking two aspects of the predicate F: Fx   (which is a conjunction of three sub-predicates) and   Gx. The quality of the statement is affirmative because it is making a claim about the relationship between these two predicates.
