What is the converse of the following conditional statement? If x = _10, then x2 = 100
We simply switch the hypothesis and conclusion:
If x₂ = 100, then x = -10
Answer: If x^2[/tex]= 100 then x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The converse statement of the conditional statement "if p then q" is given by "if q then p", where p is the hypothesis and q is the conclusion.
The given conditional statement is " If x = 10, then \(x^2\)= 100"
Here hypothesis p = x = 10 and conclusion=q=x^2[/tex]= 100
then the converse of the given conditional statement will be "If x^2[/tex]= 100 then x = 10"
