What Is A Conditional Statement?
A conditional statement is a logical statement that is either true or false. The statement is composed of two parts: the condition and the consequent. The condition is a statement that must be true in order for the consequent to be true. The consequent is the statement that is true if the condition is true.
Hypothesis Testing
Hypothesis testing is a technique used in statistics to determine whether a claim is true or not. The null hypothesis is a statement that there is no difference between the groups being studied. The alternative hypothesis is a statement that there is a difference between the groups being studied. The test statistic is a number that is used to determine the likelihood that the null hypothesis is true. The p-value is the probability that the test statistic would be as extreme as it is, if the null hypothesis were true. If the p-value is less than the alpha level, the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted.
How Do We Know If A Statement Is True or False?
We can know if a statement is true or false by using evidence.
Converse, Inverse, contrapositive, And Bi-conditional Statement
A statement is a sentence that is either true or false.
- The converse of a statement is a statement that is the inverse of the original statement. The converse is always false.
- The inverse of a statement is a statement that is the opposite of the original statement. The inverse is always true.
- The contrapositive of a statement is a statement that is the inverse of the converse of the original statement. The contrapositive is always true.
- A bi-conditional statement is a statement that is equivalent to the inverse of the converse of the original statement. The bi-conditional is always true.
