Question
The marketing department wants to make the claim 'If you haven't enjoyed an ACME widget then you haven't really lived life. The legal department wants to restate the claim as the less evocative 'either you haven't enjoyed an ACME widget or you have really lived life.' Are the statements equivalent (in the sense of always having the same truth value)? a. It is impossible to say because they are inter-contextually reliant. b. No c. Yes d. Yes and no A contingent statement makes a claim about the world that could be either true or false. No contingent claim can follow validly from a tautology since tautologies are always true- so there's a scenario where a contingency is false but the tautology is true. For that reason, tautologies are uninformative about the world. Which of the following is an uninformative tautology? I believe we are on an irreversible a. trend toward more freedom and democracy, but that could change. b. Either he said it or he didn't. c. For NASA space is still a high priority d. Am I right or am I right? If the boss said that's the policy then that's the policyExplanation / Answer
Q.1 No both statements are not equivalent. First statement is an if statement and second one is an OR statement.
Q.2. Statement E is uninformative tautology.
