The correct answer is: $\mathbf{F}, \mathbf{T}, \mathbf{F}$
Given $(\sim p \wedge q) \rightarrow r$ is false $T \rightarrow F \equiv F$
We know that $T \rightarrow F=F$
$\therefore \sim p \wedge q=T \quad$ and $r \equiv F$
Also we know that $\mathrm{T} \wedge \mathrm{T}=\mathrm{T}$
$\therefore \mathrm{q} \equiv \mathrm{T}$ and $\sim \mathrm{p}=\mathrm{T} \Rightarrow \mathrm{p}=\mathrm{F}$
