If p : " 4 is an odd number" and q : " 4 3 is an even number" are two statements, then which of the following statements is equivalent to ∼ p ⇒ q ?
Options
- A" 4 is an odd number and 4 3 is an even number"
- BThe negation of the statement " 4 is not an odd number or 4 3 is not an even number"
- CBoth (" 4 is an odd number and 4 3 is an even number") and (The negation of the statement " 4 is not an odd nu
- D" 4 is an odd number and 4 3 is not an even number"
Correct answer
D. " 4 is an odd number and 4 3 is not an even number"
Step-by-step solution
∼ ( p ⇒ q ) ≡ ∼ ∼ p ∨ q ≡ p ∧   ∼ q Hence, the equivalent statement of ∼ p ⇒ q is '' 4 is an odd number and 4 3 is not an even number''
