| Question 560464:  I need help constructing the truth table for the information below please...
 Write the statement in symbols using the p and q given below. Then construct a truth table for the symbolic statement and select the best match.
 p = I eat too much.   q = I'll exercise. If I exercise, then I won't eat too much.
 --------
 If I understand it correctly, the symbolic statement would look like this:
 (not p)implies q
 --------
 What would the truth table look like??
 Thanks

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write the statement in symbols using the p and q given below. Then construct a truth table for the symbolic statement and select the best match. p = I eat too much. q = I'll exercise. If I exercise, then I won't eat too much.

 If I understand it correctly, the symbolic statement would look like this:
 (not p)implies q
 =================================
 If I exercise, then I won't eat too much.
 My answer:
 q implies (not p)
 ----------------------
 Truth Table:
 p..q:::::q......implies.....not p
 t..t:::::t.........F...........f
 t..f:::::f.........T...........f
 f..t:::::t.........T...........t
 f..f:::::f.........T...........t
 ==========================================
