Question

Which of the following illustrates the truth value of the given conditional statement if 6*3=18, then 4+8=20

Answer 1

Conditional statement represents two statements, the "p" and the "q". Where p is the hypothesis and q is the conclusion.

The table of conditional statement:
(p)     (q)     (p -> q)
 T       T          T
 T       F          F
 F       T          T
 F       F          F

As shown on the table, (p -> q) can only be false if the "p statement" is true while the "q statement" is false.

The given states that, "If 6*3 = 18, then 8+4 = 20", 
set p: 6*3 = 18
      q: 8+4 = 20

Since p is true and q is false, then the truth value (p->q) is false.

Answer 2

Answer:

Conditional statement represents two statements, the "p" and the "q". Where p is the hypothesis and q is the conclusion.

The table of conditional statement:

(p)     (q)     (p -> q)

T       T          T

T       F          F

F       T          T

F       F          F

As shown on the table, (p -> q) can only be false if the "p statement" is true while the "q statement" is false.

The given states that, "If 6*3 = 18, then 8+4 = 20",

set p: 6*3 = 18

     q: 8+4 = 20

Since p is true and q is false, then the truth value (p->q) is false.
