Explanation / Answer

P: The search party misses our distress signal

Q: They will be able to rescue us

The statement has a "and" connector between the two statements. This should mean that our answer choice should contain a "^" symbol which represents a logical and.

So, consider options A and D for the final 2 and now we should narrow down to the right answer.

The first half of the statement has "They won't be able to catch us" which is represented by ~Q.

So, part-1 will be P->~Q

The second half of the statement has "If the search party doesn't miss the rescue signal" which is represented by ~P.

So, part-2 will be ~P->Q

So, final answer will be (P->~Q)^(~P->Q)

Option- D
