Answer 1

B

Explanation:

To find the inverse of the given statement, we need to negate both the "if" and the "then" parts of the statement. The original statement is:

"If I do not sit next to my friend, then I will stay out of trouble."

The inverse will be:

"If I sit next to my friend, then I will not stay out of trouble."

So, the correct answer is option B:

"If I sit next to my friend, then I will not stay out of trouble."
