Answer 1

I think it's A seeing as even if a compound statement uses if and then, or, and, and if and only if, p -> q specifically the -> means if then.

Answer 2

i believe thats right, it would be a because p -> q and p satisfies the condition to call q true.

Answer 3

Right! ^^ also thank you so much for this, I constantly doubt whether or not I'm right and I'd rather not be wrong :']
