QuestionNegate the statement: It is thundering and lightning.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The statement is "It is thundering and lightning." . We are asked to form the negation of the statement.
3. The negation of a statement is a statement that contradicts or denies the original statement.
4. The negation of a conjunction (and) is formed by negating each of the components and connecting them with a disjunction (or).

STEP 2

The given statement is a conjunction of two statements "It is thundering" and "It is lightning." $Statement = "It\, is\, thundering"\, AND\, "It\, is\, lightning"$

STEP 3

To form the negation of the statement, we need to negate each of the components and connect them with a disjunction (or).
$Negation = NOT\, "It\, is\, thundering"\, OR\, NOT\, "It\, is\, lightning"$

STEP 4

Now, we can write the negation of the statement in plain English.
The negation of the statement "It is thundering and lightning" is "It is not thundering or it is not lightning."
