Final answer:

The value of (p⟹q)∨∼p when p is true and q is true is True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of (p⟹q)∨∼p when p is true and q is true can be determined by substituting the values and evaluating the logical expression.

(p⟹q)∨∼p = (true⟹true)∨∼true

The implication operator (⟹) states that if p is true and q is true, then the result is true. Therefore, (true⟹true) is true.

The negation operator (∼) in front of p means to take the opposite value of p. Since p is true, ∼p is false.

Substituting the values, we have:

(true)∨∼true = true∨false

The logical OR operator (∨) states that if any of the operands is true, then the result is true. In this case, true∨false is true.

Therefore, the value of (p⟹q)∨∼p, when p is true and q is true, is True.

The correct option is a. True
