Options

A. It is raining and it is not cold.
B. It is rainingj or it is not cold.
C. It is raining but cold.
D. None of these

Answer

To convert the symbolic statement \( q \lor \neg p \) into verbal form, we follow these steps:

1. **Identify the Statements**:
- \( p \): "It is cold"
- \( q \): "It is raining"

2. **Interpret the Negation**:
- The negation of \( p \) (which is \( \neg p \)) translates to "It is not cold".

3. **Combine the Statements with the Logical Operator**:
- The symbol \( \lor \) represents the logical "or". Therefore, we need to combine \( q \) and \( \neg p \) using "or".
- So, we have: "It is raining or it is not cold".

4. **Final Verbal Form**:
- The complete verbal form of the symbolic statement \( q \lor \neg p \) is: "It is raining or it is not cold".
