Question 484348: Hello there! I have been trying to attempt to make a truth chart & am completely lost! Can you please help me with the following problem?
~p → (p^~q)
The symbols get me all confused. I'm trying to understand the logic of what the problem is saying...any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

~p → (p ^ ~q)
F:::::::::T::::::F
F:::::::::T::::::T
T:::::::::F::::::F
T:::::::::F;:::::T

============================
Now figure the ^ column which is T only when both p and ~q are true:
~p → (p ^ ~q)
F:::::::::T::F:::F
F:::::::::T::T:::T
T:::::::::F::F:::F
T:::::::::F::F:::T

============================
Now figure the "implies" column
which is F only when ~p is T and ^ is F
~p → (p ^ ~q)
F::::T::::T::F:::F
F::::T::::T::T:::T
T::::F::::F::F:::F
T::::F::::F::F:::T
----
So the statement is true when p is true.

Please use Google to search for "truth tables" to get

it is very cumbersome to display a solution on this site.
