Assuming the following statement.
p : Stock prices are high.
q : Stocks are rising.
to be true, find the truth value of the following.
If stock prices are high then stocks are not rising.
Solution
The Symbolic form of the given statement is p → ~ q.
∴ p → ~ q ≡ T → ~ T ≡ T → F ≡ F
Hence, truth value is F.
