Which of the following statements is true?

  1. The sentence $S$ is a logical consequence of $S_{1},\dots,S_{n}$ if and only if $S_{1}\wedge S_{2} \wedge \dots \wedge S_{n}\rightarrow S$ is satisfiable.
  2. The sentence $S$ is a logical consequence of $S_{1},\dots,S_{n}$ if and only if $S_{1}\wedge S_{2}\wedge \dots \wedge S_{n}\rightarrow S$ is valid.
  3. The sentence $S$ is a logical consequence of $S_{1},\dots,S_{n}$ if and only if $S_{1}\wedge S_{2}\wedge \dots \wedge S_{n}\wedge S$ is consistent.
  4. The sentence $S$ is a logical consequence of $S_{1},\dots,S_{n}$ if and only if $S_{1}\wedge S_{2}\wedge \dots \wedge S_{n}\wedge S$ is inconsistent.

The sentence $S$ is a logical consequence of $S_{1}, ... S_{n}$ if and only if $S_{1} \wedge S_{2} ... \wedge S_{n} \rightarrow S$ is Tautology or Valid, hence option B is correct.
