Question #903d7

Answer 1

It is a correct deduction. See explanation.

Explanation:

Let `p` and `q` be logical sentences:

`p` - Jennifer gets her chores done

`q` - Jennifer goes to the mall

The first sentence says that the implication `p ->q` is true.
The next sentence says that at a certain time (by 5 p.m.) the sentence `p` is true.

It is logically correct to deduce that if the sentence `p` is true and the implication `p->q` is also true, then sentence `q` must be true.
