The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Component Statements The compound statement given is: "If Kota is in England, then 7 + 7 = 15". Let's break this down into its component statements: - Let \( p \): "Kota is in England". - Let \( q \): "7 + 7 = 15". ### Step 2: Determine the Truth Values of the Component Statements Now, we need to check the truth values of the component statements \( p \) and \( q \): - For \( p \): "Kota is in England" is **false** (since it is stated that Kota is in India). - For \( q \): "7 + 7 = 15" is also **false** (because \( 7 + 7 = 14 \)). ### Step 3: Evaluate the Compound Statement The compound statement is of the form "If \( p \), then \( q \)" (denoted as \( p \rightarrow q \)). In logic, the implication \( p \rightarrow q \) is only false when \( p \) is true and \( q \) is false. In all other cases (when \( p \) is false), the implication is considered true. Since both \( p \) and \( q \) are false: - \( p \) is false. - \( q \) is false. According to the truth table for implications: - If \( p \) is false and \( q \) is false, then \( p \rightarrow q \) is **true**. ### Final Conclusion Thus, the compound statement "If Kota is in England, then 7 + 7 = 15" is **true**. ---
