Which of these true conditional statements has a true converse? (a) If x>3 then 2x>6 (b) If x>3 then x>2 (c) If x>3 then x>0 (d) If x>3 then x>-3

OpenStudy (mathmate):

The converse would be true if they are equivalent, since equivalence means \(p->q \land q->p\) So for any statement where the left-hand side is equivalent to the right-hand-side, the converse would be true. Can you spot the choice?

(d)?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Only if is 3 equivalent to -3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh it is (a)\

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cuz two times 3 is 6

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Yep, that's the correct answer! Well-done! :)
