Given the original statement "If a number is negative, the additive inverse is positive,” which are true? Select three options. If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the original statement is p → q. If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the inverse of the original statement is ~p → ~q. If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the converse of the original statement is ~q → ~p. If q = a number is negative and p = the additive inverse is positive, the contrapositive of the original statement is ~p → ~q. If q = a number is negative and p = the additive inverse is positive, the converse of the original statement is q → p.

Answer:

A. If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the original statement is p → q.

B. If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the inverse of the original statement is ~p → ~q.

D. If q = a number is negative and p = the additive inverse is positive, the contrapositive of the original statement is ~p → ~q.

Explanation:

(not 100% sure if these are correct but if they are, then I hope they helped you!)
