For the first statement:

"If it is Monday, then the library is closed. Today is Tuesday."

Since today is Tuesday, we know that it is not Monday. Therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the library's status based on the information given.

Answer: It is not possible to draw a conclusion.


For the second statement:

"If a coin is a quarter, then it is worth 25 cents. If a coin is worth 25 cents, then 4 would make a dollar."

We know that if a coin is a quarter, it is worth 25 cents. We also know that if a coin is worth 25 cents, then 4 of those coins make a dollar. However, we cannot conclude that if someone has a coin, it must be a quarter, because there may be other coins worth 25 cents.

Answer: It is not possible to draw a conclusion.

second one is wrong,the answer is the " if, then" statement

I apologize for the oversight. Let's analyze the second statement again:

  1. "If a coin is a quarter, then it is worth 25 cents."
  2. "If a coin is worth 25 cents, then 4 would make a dollar."

From the first two assertions, we can logically deduce that if a coin is a quarter, then four quarters (which are each worth 25 cents) would indeed add up to one dollar.

So the conclusion that can be drawn is:
If a coin is a quarter, then 4 would make a dollar.

Thank you for your clarification, and I appreciate your patience.
