Determine the hypothesis of the conditional statement: If my mom has to work, then I babysit my little sister.
@Narad @Vocaloid
Here's the format for a conditional statement: If <hypothesis>, then <conclusion>.
so its "If my mom has to work"
Determine the inverse of the conditional statement: If my mom has to work, then I babysit my little sister.
@Vocaloid
To form the inverse, you have to negate both the statements For example If I answer this question, I help Nicole The inverse would be If I don't answer this question, I didn't help Nichole
@Nicole
so it would be "If my mom doesnt go to work, I wont babysit my little sister?"
Also, it's advised to make new posts for new questions
okay but is that the right way to write it?
?
@TheSmartOne
That could work but the intricacies in the English language would suggest it better as If my mom doesn't have to work, then I don't have to babysit
Oh okay Determine the contrapositive of the conditional statement: If my mom has to work, then I babysit my little sister.
then I don't babysit my sister*
mhm
Determine the contrapositive of the conditional statement: If my mom has to work, then I babysit my little sister.
@TheSmartOne
For the contrapositive, You flip the hypothesis and the conclusion and negative it If not <conclusion>, then not <hypothesis>
If I dont babysit my little sister, my mom won't have to go to work. like that? @dude
Keep the If-then format but yes If I don't babysit my little sister, then my mom won't have to go to work.
okay got it Determine the converse of the conditional statement: If my mom has to work, then I babysit my little sister.
If A then B The converse is If B, then A
If I babysit my little sister, my mom goes to work?
@TheSmartOne @dude ?
Yeah I guess that works. But you're ignoring the intricacies of the language Your mom HAS to work
Determine the converse of the conditional statement: If the lengths of the sides of a rectangle are 6 inches and 4 inches, the area is 24 square inches. If the area is 24 square inches, the lengths of the sides of the rectangle are 6 inches and 4 inches is that right?
