i think it is B

anonymous · Answer

I'd say A but I'm not sure

anonymous · Answer

idk..they all say or except for B which says and like the original statement

anonymous · Answer

Both statements in B are true. Both statements in C are false. Both statements in D are true. The first statement in A is false, but the second is true. I guess it is A, is it is also half-true, just like the example.

anonymous · Answer

and that makes it have the same truth value?

anonymous · Answer

because they are both half wrong

anonymous · Answer

I guess the amount and or order of true and false 
statements, not sure though.

anonymous · Answer

If it is A then only the ratio true/false statements matters i suppose :)

anonymous · Answer

ok im gonna look up what makes two statements have the same truth values

anonymous · Answer

Im curious too

anonymous · Answer

ok based on my reading you seem correct..i just dont want to get this wrong

anonymous · Answer

I  can imagine :) Well this seems the only way to interpret it...I guess?

anonymous · Answer

it seems that setting up a truth table would get you th answer but i dont know how to do this

anonymous · Answer

i guess it is saying p ^~q now find a statement that equals that...does ~p v q

anonymous · Answer

Im not very familiar with Logic :) Only the part that can be reasoned..

anonymous · Answer

ok ill give you a medal if u were right lol

anonymous · Answer

Lol ok you got me curious :)

anonymous · Answer

i had few problems with geometry until i got to this.............

anonymous · Answer

Well this is not geometry, this is Logic (another subject)

anonymous · Answer

well it is on my geometry test :/

anonymous · Answer

That is weird...well as said, if I have to give any interpretation to "truth value" it would be the amount of truth in the statement. A simple statement can be false or true, so two statements can be true, half-true or false.

anonymous · Answer

so a..

anonymous · Answer

that is what i was debating
