The question is, "Find the dual of each of these compound propositions."

The propositions being: p∧¬q∧¬r, (p∧q∧r)∨s, and (p∨F)∧(q∨T)

I don't quite understand what they want me to do.

Do you know what the "dual" of a proposition is?
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
