The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the statements p and q Let: - \( p \): "5 is greater than 7" (which is false) - \( q \): "6 is less than 4" (which is also false) ### Step 2: Write the implication \( p \implies q \) The implication \( p \implies q \) can be expressed in logical terms as: \[ p \implies q \] ### Step 3: Rewrite the implication in the form \( \neg p \lor q \) According to the logical equivalence, we can rewrite \( p \implies q \) as: \[ \neg p \lor q \] ### Step 4: Determine \( \neg p \) and \( \neg q \) Now, we need to find the negations of \( p \) and \( q \): - \( \neg p \): "5 is not greater than 7" (which is true) - \( \neg q \): "6 is not less than 4" (which is true) ### Step 5: Substitute \( \neg p \) and \( q \) into the expression Now we substitute \( \neg p \) and \( q \) into the expression: \[ \neg p \lor q = \text{"5 is not greater than 7"} \lor \text{"6 is less than 4"} \] ### Step 6: Write the negation of the implication The negation of the implication \( p \implies q \) can be expressed as: \[ \neg(p \implies q) \] Using the equivalence we derived earlier, this can be rewritten as: \[ p \land \neg q \] ### Step 7: Substitute \( p \) and \( \neg q \) Now we substitute \( p \) and \( \neg q \): - \( \neg q \): "6 is not less than 4" (which is true, meaning "6 is greater than or equal to 4") Thus, we have: \[ p \land \neg q = \text{"5 is greater than 7"} \land \text{"6 is greater than or equal to 4"} \] ### Final Statement The negation of the statement "If 5 is greater than 7, then 6 is less than 4" is: "5 is greater than 7 and 6 is greater than or equal to 4." ---
