Math Problem Statement
Negate the conditional statement.
(a∧∼b)⇒∼c
Solution
To negate the conditional statement , we use the logical equivalence that negates an implication:
Where is and is .
Step-by-step negation:
- The negation of the conditional statement is equivalent to:
- Simplifying gives .
Thus, the negated form of the statement is:
This is the final negation of the conditional statement.
