Answer:
40 socks
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 48 socks in total inside the drawer. 2 pairs of white socks means four white socks. The worst possible scenario (however unlikely it is) is that Laura takes all of the red, blue and green socks before picking any white sock. From that point on, Laura has to pick four more socks in order to have two white pairs. In this scenario, there are 8 socks left in the drawer, all white. Therefore, the minimum number of socks that Laura must take to be sure that she has two pairs of white socks is:
She must take at least 40 socks.
Let's say we placed dominoes close together such that they only fell over one way: to the right hand side. Let's call the dominoes A and B.
Domino A is to the left of domino B. If we push over domino A, then it will hit domino B to cause it to fall over as well. We have a mini chain reaction of sorts. The fall of A triggers the fall of B, but not the other way around.
For this problem, we can think of domino A as "Jillian gets a raise" and domino B as "she will buy a new car". The raise causes her to get a new car, but not vice versa.
Since we're told in the last sentence she definitely got the raise, this must mean she will definitely get the new car.
In terms of symbols, the law of detachment is stated as

- P is true
- Therefore Q is true
Side note: some books might use the term "modus ponens" instead of "law of detachment". They're the same thing.
