Use logical equivalences (not a truth table) to reduce p → (q − p) to a tautology t. in other words, you should transform p → (q − p) into an equivalent statement, then transform that into another equivalent statement, and so on, until you arrive at a tautology. your solution should look something like this: p → (q − p) = statement = statement = . . = t. (note: the symbol = is technically the same as h. it's just easier to use = , because can easily be confused as being part of the logical statement you're transforming).

The statement is a tautology.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following statement:

To reduce the statement to a tautology we need to use the table of logical equivalences as follows:

by the the logical equivalence involving conditional statement.

by the the logical equivalence involving conditional statement.

by the Associative law.

by the Negation law.

by the Domination law.

costs the what? what is the cost of the pants?

step-by-step explanation:

if it is $10, then the price is 14.

take 40% of the cost, and then add the cost.

40% of 10 = 4

4+10 = 14.
