Consider the following two statements:
P : If 7 is an odd number, then 7 is divisible by 2.
Q : If 7 is a prime number, then 7 is an odd number.
If `V_(1)` is the truth value of the contrapositive of P and `V_(2)` is the truth value of contrapositive of Q then the ordered pair `(V_(1),V_(2))` equals:

A

(a) `(F,F)`

B

(b) `(F,T)`

C

(c) `(T,F)`

D

(d) `(T,T)`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the two statements P and Q, find their truth values, and then determine the truth values of their contrapositives. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement P Statement P: "If 7 is an odd number, then 7 is divisible by 2." - **Truth Value of P**: - The first part "7 is an odd number" is true. - The second part "7 is divisible by 2" is false. - A true statement cannot imply a false statement, so P is false. ### Step 2: Find the Contrapositive of P The contrapositive of a statement "If A, then B" is "If not B, then not A." - For P: - A = "7 is an odd number" (True) - B = "7 is divisible by 2" (False) - Contrapositive of P: "If 7 is not divisible by 2, then 7 is not an odd number." - Here, "7 is not divisible by 2" is true (since 7 is odd). - "7 is not an odd number" is false. - **Truth Value of Contrapositive of P (V1)**: Since a true statement cannot imply a false statement, V1 is false (F). ### Step 3: Analyze Statement Q Statement Q: "If 7 is a prime number, then 7 is an odd number." - **Truth Value of Q**: - The first part "7 is a prime number" is true. - The second part "7 is an odd number" is also true. - A true statement implies another true statement, so Q is true. ### Step 4: Find the Contrapositive of Q - For Q: - A = "7 is a prime number" (True) - B = "7 is an odd number" (True) - Contrapositive of Q: "If 7 is not an odd number, then 7 is not a prime number." - Here, "7 is not an odd number" is false (since 7 is odd). - "7 is not a prime number" is also false (since 7 is prime). - **Truth Value of Contrapositive of Q (V2)**: Since a false statement cannot imply another false statement, V2 is true (T). ### Step 5: Form the Ordered Pair Now we have: - V1 = F (truth value of the contrapositive of P) - V2 = T (truth value of the contrapositive of Q) Thus, the ordered pair (V1, V2) is (F, T). ### Final Answer The ordered pair (V1, V2) equals (F, T). ---
