The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options is logically equivalent to \( p \land q \), we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Original Statement**: The original statement is \( p \land q \), which means "p and q". 2. **Option 1: \( p \implies \neg q \)**: - We know that \( p \implies \neg q \) can be rewritten using the implication equivalence: \[ p \implies \neg q \equiv \neg p \lor \neg q \] - By De Morgan's Law, \( \neg p \lor \neg q \) can be expressed as: \[ \neg (p \land q) \] - Thus, \( p \implies \neg q \) is not equivalent to \( p \land q \). 3. **Option 2: \( \neg p \lor \neg q \)**: - This option is already in the form of \( \neg p \lor \neg q \). - Again, by De Morgan's Law, we have: \[ \neg p \lor \neg q \equiv \neg (p \land q) \] - Therefore, \( \neg p \lor \neg q \) is also not equivalent to \( p \land q \). 4. **Option 3: \( \neg p \implies \neg q \)**: - Using the implication equivalence, we can rewrite this as: \[ \neg p \implies \neg q \equiv p \lor \neg q \] - However, we need to analyze this further. We can express \( \neg p \implies \neg q \) as: \[ \neg p \lor \neg q \] - By De Morgan's Law, we can rewrite it as: \[ \neg (p \land q) \] - This means \( \neg p \implies \neg q \) is not equivalent to \( p \land q \). 5. **Option 4: \( \neg \neg p \land \neg q \)**: - Simplifying this gives us: \[ p \land \neg q \] - This is not equivalent to \( p \land q \). ### Conclusion: After analyzing all the options, we find that none of the options provided are logically equivalent to \( p \land q \). ### Final Answer: None of the options are logically equivalent to \( p \land q \).

To determine which of the given options is logically equivalent to \( p \land q \), we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Original Statement**: The original statement is \( p \land q \), which means "p and q". 2. **Option 1: \( p \implies \neg q \)**: ...
