The easiest way to prove equivalence is to draw out a truth table and then compare the values. I'm going to show a truth table using proposition logic, it's the same result as using predicate logic. 
P(x) v Q(x)

P |Q || PvQ  || ~Q->P  <----Notice how this column matches the PvQ but if you were to 
---|---||--------||----------  <----continue the truth table with ~P->Q it would not be equivalent
T   T      T           T   
T   F      T           T
F   T      T           T
F   F      F           F

Let me know if you would like an example, if the truth table doesn't help.

The sum of a number and five is at least 5?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Hello! For this type of problem, the sum is addition. Therefore, you add n and 5. The inequality for this question would be n + 5 >= 5. At least would mean a greater than or equal to symbol. If you need the answer as the value of n, n >= 0.
