Answer 1

Question 1

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

Conclusion: It is not possible to draw a conclusion.

Explanation: The statement only specifies that the library is closed if it is Monday. Since today is Tuesday, we cannot determine whether the library is open or closed based on the provided information.

Question 2

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.

Conclusion: It is not possible to draw a conclusion.

Explanation: While the statements describe relationships between quarters and their value, and the value of a dollar, they do not provide enough information to deduce that a specific coin must be a quarter or to conclude anything definitive beyond those relationships. Therefore, without additional information, no conclusion can be made about a coin that is simply "worth 25 cents."
