Question

Consider the following statements:
\( A \): Rishi is a judge.
\( B \): Rishi is honest.
\( C \): Rishi is not arrogant.
The negation of the statement "If Rishi is a judge and he is not arrogant, then he is honest" is:

• A. \( B \rightarrow (A \vee C) \)
• B. \( (\neg B) \wedge (A \wedge C) \)
• C. \( B \rightarrow ((\neg A) \vee (\neg C)) \)
• D. \( B \rightarrow (A \wedge C) \)

Hint:

Negation of an implication \( P \rightarrow Q \) is always \( P \wedge \neg Q \).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The statement provided is: \[ (A \wedge C) \rightarrow B \] The negation of an implication \( P \rightarrow Q \) is \( P \wedge eg Q \). Therefore: \[ eg [(A \wedge C) \rightarrow B] \equiv (A \wedge C) \wedge eg B \] This corresponds to option (B).
