May you check my answer, I got B @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Hint: Original: if P, then Q Converse: if Q, then P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the converse of P->Q is Q->P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I applied that theory and got A, but I still think it's wrong..

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

In the original statement, what are P and Q?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

If you aren't sure, here's an example "IF it rains, THEN it gets wet outside" P: It rains Q: it gets wet outside translating to... if P, then Q the converse is simply flipping the "if" and "then" Converse: if Q, then P Converse: If it gets wet outside, then it rains

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

As you hopefully see, the converse is not always equivalent to the original

I see, THANK YOU! If and then is only switched in "D"!
