Example of use of terms:
Statement: If it is far, we take a bus.
Inverse: If it is not far, we do not take a bus.
Converse: If we take a bus, it is far.
Contrapositive: If we do not take a bus, it is not far.
We also know that
1. The inverse of the inverse is the statement itself, and similarly for converse and contrapositive.
2. Only the contrapositive is logically equivalent to the original statement.
This means that the converse and inverse are logically different from the original statement.
Now back to the given statement.
To find the original statement, we find the contrapositive of the contrapositive.
We then find the converse from the original statement, as in the example above.
Original statement
(note that in English, if it is not worth X dollars, means if it is not worth AT LEAST X dollars")
contrapositive of
<span>
"If an item is not worth five dimes, then it is not worth two quarters.”
is the negation of the converse, which become
"If an item is worth two quarters, then it is worth (at least) five dimes."
The converse of the previous statement is therefore
"If an item is worth (at least) five dimes then it is worth two quarters"
In this particular case, we can also take advantage of the fact that the contrapositive is the negation of the converse. So all we have to do is the provide the negation of each component of the contrapositive to get the converse:
"If an item is worth (at least) five dimes, then it is worth two quarters".
as before.
Note that the converse does NOT logically mean the same as the original statement.

Answer: Hello, Here you Answer......
132 km
Given that the relationship between kilometers and fuel is proportional, let the distance in km be k and the fuel be f:
thus:
kα cf
k=cf
where k is the constant of proportionality. Thus:
c=k/f
Pamela drove 99 km and used 9 liters;
∴k=99/9=11 km/liter
therefore distance covered is given by:
k=11f
hence the distance covered with 12 liters of fuel will be:
k=11×12
=132 km Hope this helps! (Brainly)♥
Answer:
fraction: 3 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
I think 1 / 7 x 7 is the correct answer
First, you make 9 into a fraction which would become 36/4
then, subtract 9/4 from both sides so that would give you 3/4x = 27/4
then divide each side by 3/4 (same thing as multiply by its reciprocal) and that would give you x=9
