Question
1. Write the converse of the following true conditional statement. if the converse is false, write a counterexample.
If a < 10, then a < 15
a) if a > 10, the a > 15; false. Counterexample: a=12 and a<15.
b) if a <15, then a<10; false.
Counterexample: a=12 and a >10
c) If a <15, then a <10;true
d) if a>(equal or greater to) 15, then a>(equal or greater to) 10; true
Could someone please help and explain? This doesn't make any sense. Thank you!

C is the converse, and it is clearly false. 11 < 15 but 11 ~< 10
The other statements may be true or false, but they are not the converse of the given statement.

it's 100% B. I literally just took the test 2 seconds ago.
B. if a<15, then a<10; false
B. if a<15, then a<10; false
