Example 3b:<br />

Determine the truth value of the following statement<br />

for each set of conditions. If Sam rests for 10 days,<br />

his ankle will heal.<br />

Sam rests for 3 days, and he still has a hurt ankle.<br />

The hypothesis is false, and the conclusion is false. The<br />

statement does not say what happens if Sam only rests<br />

for 3 days. His ankle could possibly still heal.<br />

Answer: In this case, we cannot say that the statement<br />

is false. Thus, the statement is true.
