The correct Answer is:
To find the negation of the statement "If I will become famous then I will open a school," we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the components of the statement The statement can be broken down into two parts: - Let \( P \): "I will become famous." - Let \( Q \): "I will open a school." ### Step 2: Understand the structure of the statement The statement is of the form "If \( P \) then \( Q \)", which can be written as \( P \rightarrow Q \). ### Step 3: Apply the negation rule The negation of an implication \( P \rightarrow Q \) is given by the formula: \[ \neg(P \rightarrow Q) \equiv P \land \neg Q \] This means that the negation of "If \( P \) then \( Q \)" is equivalent to saying " \( P \) is true and \( Q \) is false." ### Step 4: Write the negation in words Now substituting back the meanings of \( P \) and \( Q \): - \( P \): "I will become famous." - \( \neg Q \): "I will not open a school." Thus, the negation of the original statement is: "I will become famous and I will not open a school." ### Step 5: Check the options Now we can check the provided options to see which one matches our derived negation: - Option A: "I will become famous and I will not open a school." (This matches) - Option B: "Either I will not become famous or I will not open a school." - Option C: "Neither I will not become famous nor I will open a school." - Option D: "I will not become famous or I will open a school." The correct answer is **Option A**. ---
