Question 1

Consider the conditional statement: "If p: You study hard, then q: You will pass" (p → q) If p is True and q is False, what is the truth value of p → q?
Step 1: Understand the implication (→) operator
The implication p → q is False ONLY when p is True but q is False.
In all other cases, it is True.

Truth table for p → q:
p=T, q=T → Result=T
p=T, q=F → Result=F (the only False case)
p=F, q=T → Result=T
p=F, q=F → Result=T

Step 2: Apply the given values
p = True, q = False

Step 3: Evaluate p → q
Since p is True but q is False, the implication fails: p → q = False

Question 2

Consider the conditional statement: "If p: You press the button, then q: The light turns on" (p → q) If p is False and q is True, what is the truth value of p → q?
Step 1: Understand the implication (→) operator
The implication p → q is False ONLY when p is True but q is False.

p=F, q=F → Result=T

Step 2: Apply the given values
p = False, q = True

Step 3: Evaluate p → q
Since this is not the case where p is True and q is False, p → q = True
