The statement we end up with, "All people who do not win lotteries are people who do not get lots of mail," is false.

We first find the contrapositive by switching the hypothesis and conclusion and then negating both:

"All people who do not get lots of mail are people who do not win lotteries."

The contrapositive of a true statement is true.

From here we find the converse by switching the hypothesis and conclusion of the newest statement:

"All people who do not win lotteries are people who do not get lots of mail."

This is essentially a negation of the original statement; a negation of a true statement is false.

If the surface area of a cube is 384, what is the length of one of the sides of<br> the cube?
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

S = 8

Each side of a face is 8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the cube is 384 units.

One face of the cube has an area of s^2

A cube has 6 faces

6s^2 = 384                                 Divide by 6

s^2 = 384 / 6

s^2 = 64                                     Take the square root of both sides

sqrt(s^2) = sqrt(64)

s = 8
