Final answer:
The correct answer is option d) 'I will go to the store,' as it does not contain the 'if-then' structure that characterizes conditional statements.
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, let's look at what constitutes a conditional statement. In logic and mathematics, a conditional statement is usually an "if-then" statement, meaning that it specifies a condition that if met, will lead to a certain outcome. Let's analyze each statement one by one:
a) "If you wait until tomorrow, you’ll be able to go to the zoo." - This is a conditional statement. The condition is waiting until tomorrow, and the outcome is being able to go to the zoo.
b) "I can buy the sandwich if I have enough money." - This is also a conditional statement. The condition here is having enough money, and the outcome is buying the sandwich.
c) "Throw the ball if you want to win the game." - This statement is conditional as well. The condition is the desire to win the game, and the outcome is throwing the ball.
d) "I will go to the store." - This statement does not contain a condition. It is a straightforward declaration of what the speaker intends to do with no condition attached. Since a conditional statement requires a condition, the answer is d) "I will go to the store." as it is not a conditional statement but rather a direct declaration of intent.
The correct answer is option d) 'I will go to the store,
