Uh, the middle one
It's just reasonable
100

Going from the specific cases to a general conclusion.

What is inductive reasoning?

100

If p is True, what is NOT p?

False

100

Complete the following table with the conjunction condition.  (What?  You were expecting an easy question here?!)  

TFFF

The conjunction is the AND condition.  Both (or all) must be true in order th get a true conclusion.

100

When comparing two propositions it is true when both propositions have the same truth value (T-T or F-F), and false when their truth values differ (F-T or T-F).

What is the Biconditional  (IFF)?

100

"Boys have short hair."

Turn this into a proper conditional statement. Remember, it matters not whether the statement is always true, sometimes true or never true. 

IF you are a boy,

THEN you have shorty hair.

200

Going from a general proposition to a specific conclusion.

What is deductive reasoning?

200

What does this symbol represent?  

disjunction which says "Or"

200

Two propositions are ________ if and only if they have identical truth values in a truth table.

What is Logically Equivalent?

200

I am the symbol for the biconditional.

200

"IF you are a boy, THEN you have short hair."

State the converse.  

Remember, it matters not whether the statement is always true, sometimes true or never true.

"IF you have short hair THEN you are a boy."

300

True-false:  Inductive reasoning cannot be proven to be false. 

false - just find a counter-example

300

What does this symbol represent?

What is "conjunction" which says "and"

300

Complete the truth table for disjunction. (4 output values)

What is TTTF

The disjunction refers to the OR condition.  If either one is true (or both), then the conclusion is true.

300

In a conditional if P then Q, the _________ is the proposition represented by the P.

What is the hypothesis?

300

If you wish to prove an inductive statement to be false, then you will need a __________________ to show that it is not valid.

What are Contradiction?  Also, what is a counter example?

400

In order to show that an inductive proposition is false, how many counter examples do we need?

ONE counter example

400

What do i mean by "disjunction"?

Or

400

Complete the last two columns of the following truth table:

Thought that this would be easier than the 500 question?  OOPS


400

In a conditional if P then Q, the ____________ is the proposition represented by the Q.

What is the conclusion?

400

"IF you are a boy, THEN you have short hair."

State the inverse.  

Remember, it matters not whether the statement is always true, sometimes true or never true.

"If you are not a boy, then you do not have short hair."

500

What do we call those tables organized to show the possible results of our logic?

What is truth tables?

500

p = T    q = F   If I am  "and," what is the result of p and q? 

False  (F)

500

The truth table for the biconditional.  IFF  

What is TFFT?

(True when both agree ONLY)

500

Which of the following will always be true, assuming that the original statement is true?

inverse

converse

contrapositive

What is the contrapositive?

500

"IF you are a boy, THEN you have short hair."

State the contrapositive.  

Remember, it matters not whether the statement is always true, sometimes true or never true.

If you do not have short hair, then you are not a boy."
