Final answer:

The converse is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The converse of a conditional statement is formed by interchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the original statement. In this case, the original statement is 'If d≤7, then d≥5.' The hypothesis is 'd≤7' and the conclusion is 'd≥5'.

The converse of the statement would be 'If d≥5, then d≤7.'

To determine if the converse is true or false, we need to check if the converse implies the original statement. In this case, the converse does imply the original statement, so the answer is True.
