The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to identify the original statement and then derive its converse, inverse, and contrapositive. ### Original Statement: "If you do not drink your milk, you will not be strong." ### Step 1: Identify the Components Let's denote: - P: "You do not drink your milk" - Q: "You will not be strong" The original statement can be expressed in logical form as: - If P, then Q (P → Q) ### Step 2: Write the Converse The converse of a statement is formed by reversing the hypothesis and conclusion. So, the converse of the original statement is: - If Q, then P. In words, this translates to: "If you are not strong, then you do not drink your milk." ### Step 3: Write the Inverse The inverse of a statement is formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion. Thus, the inverse of the original statement is: - If not P, then not Q. In words, this translates to: "If you drink your milk, then you will be strong." ### Step 4: Write the Contrapositive The contrapositive of a statement is formed by both reversing and negating the hypothesis and conclusion. Therefore, the contrapositive of the original statement is: - If not Q, then not P. In words, this translates to: "If you are strong, then you drink your milk." ### Summary of the Statements: 1. **Original Statement**: If you do not drink your milk, you will not be strong. 2. **Converse**: If you are not strong, then you do not drink your milk. 3. **Inverse**: If you drink your milk, then you will be strong. 4. **Contrapositive**: If you are strong, then you drink your milk.
