which shows a true conditional with a correctly identifoed hypothesis and conclusion
A: if it’s raining then the humidity level is 100%
Hypothesis: the humidity level is 100%
Conclusion: it’s raining
B: if it is raining the humidity level is 100%
Hypothesis: the humidity level is 100%
Conclusion: it’s raining
C: I hate humidity, except when it rains
Hypothesis: i hate humidity
Conclusion: it rains
D: I hate humidity, expect when it rains.
Hypothesis: it rains
Conclusion: I hate humidity
B: if it is raining the humidity level is 100%
Hypothesis: the humidity level is 100%
Conclusion: it’s raining
The correct answer is Option A: "If it’s raining then the humidity level is 100%." In this conditional statement, the hypothesis is "it’s raining" and the conclusion is "the humidity level is 100%."
To correctly identify the hypothesis and conclusion in a conditional statement, you need to understand the structure of a conditional statement. A conditional statement is an "if-then" statement, where the hypothesis appears after the "if" clause and the conclusion is after the "then" clause.
In Option A, the "if" clause states "if it’s raining," which is the hypothesis. The "then" clause states "the humidity level is 100%," which is the conclusion.
In Option B, although the hypothesis and conclusion are correctly identified, the word order is reversed. The correct structure should be "If it is raining then the humidity level is 100%."
Option C and D are not examples of a true conditional statement because they do not follow the correct "if-then" structure. The hypothesis and conclusion are not appropriately linked in those options.
The correct answer is A: if it’s raining then the humidity level is 100%
Hypothesis: it's raining
Conclusion: the humidity level is 100%
