Form the inverse:
If I do not wash my clothes, then I will have nothing clean to wear.
1. If I have nothing clean to wear, then I did not wash my clothes.
2. If I wash my clothes, then I will have something clean to wear.
3. If I have something clean to wear, then I washed my clothes.
4. If I have something clean to wear, then I did not wash my clothes.
5. If I do not wash my clothes, then I will have something clean to wear.
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The inverse of p --> q is ~p --> ~q. Likewise, the inverse of ~p --> ~q is p --> q
In this case,
p: I wash my clothes
q: I will have something clean to wear
So
~p: I do not wash my clothes
~q: I will have nothing clean to wear
So the original statement of "If I do not wash my clothes, then I will have nothing clean to wear" translates to ~p --> ~q
Using the rule given above, the inverse of that is p --> q which translates back into "If I wash my clothes, then I will have something clean to wear"
So the answer is choice 2
