idk what you are talking about

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well if only one statement is not true, as the question indicates, then if D is not true, B must be true. But if B is true then Teens are more likely to have sex under the influence of alcohol. To contract a sexually transmitted disease (STD) you have to have sex. the more sex you have the more likely you are to contract it. since underage drinkers are more likely to have sex (if B is true) then from D must be true basically, if kids have lots of sex, then there more likely to get an STD. if drinking alcohol means you have more sex, then drinking alcohol means your more likely to get an STD

cant really say to be honest. just that D cant be false if only 1 thing is false
