You can put this solution on YOUR website!
your truth table is shown below:

$$$$$


(p v q) is the or statement
(p v q) -> ~p is the implies statement

the or statement is only false if both p and q are false.

the implies statement is only false if (p v q) is true and ~p is false.

v means or
-> means implies
~ means not
