The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Statements We have two statements: - Statement \( p \): "30 is a multiple of 5." - Statement \( q \): "30 is a multiple of 9." ### Step 2: Write the Compound Statement Using 'AND' The compound statement using 'AND' can be written as: - "30 is a multiple of 5 AND 30 is a multiple of 9." ### Step 3: Check the Validity of the 'AND' Statement To check the validity of the compound statement using 'AND': - We know that 30 is a multiple of 5 (since \( 30 \div 5 = 6 \)). - However, 30 is not a multiple of 9 (since \( 30 \div 9 \) does not yield an integer). Thus, the compound statement "30 is a multiple of 5 AND 30 is a multiple of 9" is **FALSE** because one part of the statement (30 is a multiple of 9) is false. ### Step 4: Write the Compound Statement Using 'OR' The compound statement using 'OR' can be written as: - "30 is a multiple of 5 OR 30 is a multiple of 9." ### Step 5: Check the Validity of the 'OR' Statement To check the validity of the compound statement using 'OR': - As established, 30 is a multiple of 5 (TRUE). - 30 is not a multiple of 9 (FALSE). In an 'OR' statement, if at least one part is true, the whole statement is considered true. Since 30 is a multiple of 5, the compound statement "30 is a multiple of 5 OR 30 is a multiple of 9" is **TRUE**. ### Summary of Results - The compound statement using 'AND' is **FALSE**. - The compound statement using 'OR' is **TRUE**.
