Question 345236: 1.) If p is a true statement and q is a false statement then find the truth value of q^(p^q)
2.) If p is false and q is true find the truth value of Pdownarrow (PdownarrowQ)--> p
is it true or false?

Let r represent p and q. If p true and q false then p and q false, hence r false. p and (p and q) can be written p and r, but since r false, p and r is false.

Let p = "The student asked more than one question in a single post"

Let q = "The student had both of his questions answered."

p --> ~q
