# 1
p q ~p ~p -> q
T T F T
T F F T
F T T T
F F T F


========================================================================
# 2
p q p -> q ~(p -> q)
T T T F
T F F T
F T T F
F F T F


Notes:
1) ~p is the opposite of p. So if p is true, then ~p is false. If p is false, then ~p is true.

2) p -> q is only false when both p is true and q is false. Otherwise, p -> q is true.
