C. "If not q, then p"
D. "If p, then not q"

Respuesta :

C is your answer because it is more resinous

Answer:

D. "If p, then not q"

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional statement is in the form of  "if p, then q"

And negation of a conditional statement means the sentence is equivalent to "p and not q."

By definition, p → q is false if, and only if, its hypothesis, p, is true and its conclusion, q, is false. So, basically it is not q.

So, answer is : D. "If p, then not q"
