Question

Let p, q, r be three statements such that the truth value of pq~qr is F . Then the truth values of p, q, r are respectively :

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: A
Correct answer
AT, T, F

Step-by-step explanation

Given that the truth value of pq~qr is F .

For the above truth value to be possible, pq should be TRUE and ~qr should be FALSE.

pq is TRUE when p & q both are TRUE.

~qr is FALSE when q is TRUE and r is FALSE.

So, the truth values of p, q, r are T, T, F respectively.
