. Assume that the given statements are true. What conclusion, if any, can be drawn from these premises? If I don’t smile, I have wrinkles. If I smile, I receive compliments.
look at second statement :- if i smile i recieve compliments. does that mean i dont recieve compliments if i dont smile ?
mmm maybe im already so confused with these kinda questions -.- lol do you understand them?
yes, these are logic
& Goodmorning Rex!
oh very good morning :)
if something is true, then something else is true. its called logic implication
Given statement : If I smile, I receive compliments. it only says that, one way of getting compliments for me is to smile. there may be other ways of getting compliments... so from the above statement we conclude this : "if i smile, il get compliments for sure. if i dont smile, i may or may not receive compliments."
If you understand above, we can move to the first statement
yeaah i get that
use the same logic, and form conclusion for first statement. Given statement : If I don’t smile, I have wrinkles.
give it a try
so would it be like, i dont have wrinkles, if i smile?
think again. does it say that ?
no. _._
it only says that If i dont smile, i have wrinkles
that means this :- if i smile, i may or may not be having wrinkles. but if i dont smile, im sure that i have wrinkles.
oh okay so you gotta write it out like that?
yes and you wil get use to these once you do few of these problems
If my room is a mess, my mother won’t be happy. If my mother is happy, I can go to the movies. yeah i have this one too lol but same concept right?
so lets put both conclusions, and join them together :- First statement conclusion : if i smile, i may or may not be having wrinkles. but if i dont smile, im sure that i have wrinkles. Second statement conclusion : if i smile, il get compliments for sure. if i dont smile, i may or may not receive compliments.
wait, lets complete the question completely... then we can move on to next ok
ohh okay i kinda see how your putting it together
overall can we conclude this :- If i smile, i may or may not be having wrinkles, but il get compliments for sure. And, if i dont smile, im sure that i have wrinkles and i may or may not recieve compliments.
yess
great ! lets take second q
First statement : If my room is a mess, my mother won’t be happy. Second statement : If my mother is happy, I can go to the movies.
look at first statement. its given that, if u make ur room messy, ur mother wont be happy for sure. does that mean, if you keep ur room clean, ur mother will be happy for sure ?
yes sir!
actualy NO
ah wow -.- i thought it was..
your mom can be unhappy also. some moms, they're just unhappy no matter how we keep our room lol.. .
ha! true that.
so from first statement, we cannot say anything about ur mom's happiness. all we can conclude is this :- " ur mom wil be unhappy for sure if u keep ur room messy. if you keep ur room clean, then your mom may or may not be unhappy"
Next statement.
Second statement : If my mother is happy, I can go to the movies. does that mean, if your mother is not happy, u cannot go tot he movies ?
no she can still let you go, right?
you got it !
so what can we conclude from 2nd statement ?
your mother will for sure let you go to the movies when shes happy but may or may not let you go when shes unhappy?
perfect !
put both the conclusions together and join them
yay! lemme see if i got this
First statement conclusion : " ur mom wil be unhappy for sure if u keep ur room messy. if you keep ur room clean, then your mom may or may not be unhappy" Second statement conclusion : your mother will for sure let you go to the movies when shes happy but may or may not let you go when shes unhappy Overall conclusion = ?
ur mom will be unhappy for sure if you keep your room messy & may or may not let you go to the movies. your mother will let you go to the movies for sure when shes happy? correct me if im wrong please
it looks a little funky..
looks good, but one thing is missing. il add..
My mom will be unhappy for sure if I keep my room messy & may or may not let me go to the movies. My mom may or may not be unhappy if i keep my room clean. My mother will let me go to the movies for sure when shes happy
oh okaaay i see, yeah it took me a while to figure out how to plug in everything but you've been the best help ive gotten w. these problems!
