You can put this solution on YOUR website!
~p → (p ^ ~q)
\n" ); document.write( "F:::::::::T::::::F
\n" ); document.write( "F:::::::::T::::::T
\n" ); document.write( "T:::::::::F::::::F
\n" ); document.write( "T:::::::::F;:::::T
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "============================
\n" ); document.write( "Now figure the ^ column which is T only when both p and ~q are true:
\n" ); document.write( "~p → (p ^ ~q)
\n" ); document.write( "F:::::::::T::F:::F
\n" ); document.write( "F:::::::::T::T:::T
\n" ); document.write( "T:::::::::F::F:::F
\n" ); document.write( "T:::::::::F::F:::T\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "============================
\n" ); document.write( "Now figure the \"implies\" column
\n" ); document.write( "which is F only when ~p is T and ^ is F
\n" ); document.write( "~p → (p ^ ~q)
\n" ); document.write( "F::::T::::T::F:::F
\n" ); document.write( "F::::T::::T::T:::T
\n" ); document.write( "T::::F::::F::F:::F
\n" ); document.write( "T::::F::::F::F:::T\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "So the statement is true when p is true.
\n" ); document.write( "=================

\n" ); document.write( "it is very cumbersome to display a solution on this site.
