p = q
Nothing at all! It depends on the context.
The truth values.
true or false = true
p=q
Any fraction p/q where p is an integer and q is a non-zero integer is rational.
Not sure I can do a table here but: P True, Q True then P -> Q True P True, Q False then P -> Q False P False, Q True then P -> Q True P False, Q False then P -> Q True It is the same as not(P) OR Q
The relational operators: ==, !=, =.p == q; // evaluates true if the value of p and q are equal, false otherwise.p != q; // evaluates true of the value of p and q are not equal, false otherwise.p < q; // evaluates true if the value of p is less than q, false otherwise.p q; // evaluates true if the value of p is greater than q, false otherwise.p >= q; // evaluates true of the value of p is greater than or equal to q, false otherwiseNote that all of these expressions can be expressed logically in terms of the less than operator alone:p == q is the same as NOT (p < q) AND NOT (q < p)p != q is the same as (p < q) OR (q < p)p < q is the same as p < q (obviously)p q is the same as (q < p)p >= q is the same as NOT (p < q)
Ifp < q and q < r, what is the relationship between the values p and r? ________________p
Nothing at all! It depends on the context.
The truth values.
If p is true and q is false, p or q would be true. I had a hard time with this too but truth tables help. When using P V Q aka p or q, all you need is for one of the answers to be true. Since p is true P V Q would also be true:)
The statement "p if and only if q" is true when both p and q are true, or when both p and q are false.
In the statement "p implies q," the relationship between p and q is that if p is true, then q must also be true.
Comparative operators are used to compare the logical value of one object with another and thus establish the rank (ordering) of those objects. There are six comparative operators in total: p<q : evaluates true when p is less than q p>q : evaluates true when p is greater than q p<=q : evaluates true when p is less than or equal to q p>=q : evaluates true when p is greater than or equal to q p!=q : evaluates true when p is not equal to q p==q : evaluates true when p is equal to q
Assuming that you mean not (p or q) if and only if P ~(PVQ)--> P so now construct a truth table, (just place it vertical since i cannot place it vertical through here.) P True True False False Q True False True False (PVQ) True True True False ~(PVQ) False False False True ~(PVQ)-->P True True True False if it's ~(P^Q) -->P then it's, P True True False False Q True False True False (P^Q) True False False False ~(P^Q) False True True True ~(P^Q)-->P True True False False
true or false = true
If not p, then not q means that if something is not true or does not happen (p), then something else is also not true or does not happen (q).
