Use the truth table to test the validity of the following argument.
If you play varsity sports, then you are dismissed from school an hour early.
You are dismissed from school an hour early.
Therefore, you are a varsity athlete.
valid
invalid
Sorry about the repost:( But I figured out the other question!:) I've just been stuck on this for a long time and I don't want to get it wrong since I'm super torn between valid and invalid. Valid since I play varsity sports, making my hour early leave valid. Or invalid since any kid could leave an hour early... please help? Thanks

The converse is not necessarily true.
There may be lots of kids dismissed early who do not play sports at all.
