The correct Answer is:
To convert the statement "If a man is not happy, then he is not rich" into a mathematical form using the given propositions, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Statements Let: - \( p \): A man is happy - \( q \): A man is rich ### Step 2: Negate the Statements The statement "a man is not happy" translates to the negation of \( p \), which is written as \( \neg p \). Similarly, "he is not rich" translates to the negation of \( q \), which is written as \( \neg q \). ### Step 3: Formulate the Implication The original statement is an "if-then" statement. In logical terms, this is represented by the implication symbol \( \rightarrow \). Thus, the statement "If a man is not happy, then he is not rich" can be expressed as: \[ \neg p \rightarrow \neg q \] ### Final Answer The mathematical form of the statement "If a man is not happy, then he is not rich" is: \[ \neg p \rightarrow \neg q \] ---
