Question
Use the Law of Detachment to make a valid conclusion in the true situation.
Jim works every alternate day. He worked yesterday.
Hint:
Law of Detachment states that if p q is true and it is given that p is true then we can conclude
that q is also true. Here, the statement is termed as Hypothesis and the statement q is termed as conclusion.
The correct answer is: Hence, we can conclude that Jim’s next day of work is Tomorrow.
It is given that Jim works every alternate day or we can say if Jim went to work on a day then his next day of work will be the day after the next day.
Consider the statement into two separate statements
p: Jim went to work on a day.
q: His next day of work will be the day after the next day
So we can write the given statement “if Jim went to work on a day then his next day of work will be the day after the next day” as:
We are given that Jim worked yesterday so we can conclude that his next day of work is Tomorrow.
Final Answer:
Hence, we can conclude that Jim’s next day of work is Tomorrow.
