Homework Help: please help

Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, September 27, 2008 at 2:03pm.

I have a question about disjunctions.
The symbol "v" represents "or". "~" stands for "negation of"
Here are two questions I need help with:
1. When p v ~q is false, then p is ______ and q is _____.
I think "false" belongs in both spaces.
2. When ~p v q is false, then p is ______ and q is ________.
I think "false" is the answer to both of these as well.
Am I correct?

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Since you don't classify this as for math or psychology, etc., hopefully the following will help you:

Always clarify the subject matter, if at all possible.
