Let fsa and $$pda$$ be two predicates such that fsa$$(x)$$ means $$x$$ is a finite state automation, and pda$$(y)$$ means that $$y$$ is a pushdown automation. Let $$equivalent$$ be another predicate such that $$equivalent$$$$(a,b)$$ means $$a$$ and $$b$$ are equivalent. Which of the following first order logic statements represents the following:

Each finite state automation has an equivalent pushdown automation.

$$\left( {\forall x\,\,fsa\left( x \right)} \right) \Rightarrow \left( {\exists y\,\,pda\left( y \right) \wedge \,equivalent\,\,\left( {x,\,y} \right)} \right)$$

$$ \sim \forall y\left( {\exists x\,\,fsa\left( x \right) \Rightarrow pda\left( y \right) \wedge \,equivalent\left( {x,\,y} \right)} \right)$$

$$\forall x\,\exists y\left( {fsa\left( x \right) \wedge pda\left( y \right) \wedge \,equivalent\left( {x,\,y} \right)} \right)$$

$$\forall x\,\exists y\left( {fsa\left( y \right) \wedge pda\left( x \right) \wedge \,equivalent\left( {x,\,y} \right)} \right)$$

Which of the following first order formulae is logically valid? Here $$\alpha \left( x \right)$$ is a first order formulae with $$x$$ as a free variable, and $$\beta $$ is a first order formula with no free variable.

$$\left[ {\beta \to \left( {\exists x,\alpha \left( x \right)} \right)} \right] \to \left[ {\forall x,\beta \to \alpha \left( x \right)} \right]$$

$$\left[ {\exists x,\beta \to \alpha \left( x \right)} \right] \to \left[ {\beta \to \left( {\forall x,\alpha \left( x \right)} \right)} \right]$$

$$\left[ {\left( {\exists x,\alpha \left( x \right)} \right) \to \beta } \right] \to \left[ {\forall x,\alpha \left( x \right) \to \beta } \right]$$

$$\left[ {\left( {\forall x,\alpha \left( x \right)} \right) \to \beta } \right] \to \left[ {\forall x,\alpha \left( x \right) \to \beta } \right]$$
