29:
r->p
p->q
This is Transitivity (its like a chain)
OpenStudy (drawwithapurpose):
sooo r -> q
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yea like in the table
OpenStudy (drawwithapurpose):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
I dont think 30 is valid. p->r and p->~r sounds like a contradiction

contradiction?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Look at the two on the table that start with modus
OpenStudy (drawwithapurpose):
my only choices are syllogism, contrapositive, and detachment....i think it might be contrapositive :T
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yea you get modus tollens from the contrapositive
OpenStudy (drawwithapurpose):
oh okay :)

p->q becomes
~q -> ~p
so you have
~q -> ~p
~q
therefore ~p
OpenStudy (drawwithapurpose):
okay
