. What is the contrapositive of the conditional statement? Statement: If it is Tuesday, then I walk to the park. If I walk to the park, then it is Tuesday. If I don't walk to the park, then it is not Tuesday. If it is not Tuesday, then I don't walk to the park. If I don't walk to the park, then it is Tuesday.

the contrapositive of if p then q is if not q then not p

OpenStudy (freckles):

So we have the statement "If it is Tuesday, then I walk to the park" This means p=it is Tuesday and q=I walk to the park

OpenStudy (freckles):

So what is not q=? and not p=?

OpenStudy (freckles):

what is the opposite of saying it is Tuesday?

OpenStudy (kimberlyevens):

its not Tuesday? @freckles

OpenStudy (freckles):

right and how do you negate " i will walk to the park"

OpenStudy (kimberlyevens):

I don't walk to the park

OpenStudy (freckles):

the contrapositive of if p then q is if not q then not p so just replace not q with I don't walk to the park and replace not p with it is not Tuesday

OpenStudy (kimberlyevens):

is it c @dakasty12

OpenStudy (kimberlyevens):

@amistre64

OpenStudy (freckles):

why don't you replace the not q and not p above to get your answer?

OpenStudy (kimberlyevens):

I did isn't c? @freckles

OpenStudy (freckles):

i think you done it backwards

OpenStudy (freckles):

the contrapositive of If p then q is If not q then not p we said not q=I don't walk to the park we said not p= it is not Tuesday
