Question
**Construct a Truth Table for the Given Statement**

Statement: \( q \leftrightarrow \neg p \)

**Fill in the Truth Table:**

The truth table consists of the following columns:

- **p**: Represents the truth value of proposition \( p \). Can be either True (T) or False (F).
- **q**: Represents the truth value of proposition \( q \). Can be either True (T) or False (F).
- **\(\neg p\)**: Represents the negation of \( p \).
- **\(q \leftrightarrow \neg p\)**: Represents the biconditional statement, which is true if both \( q \) and \(\neg p\) have the same truth value.

| p | q | \(\neg p\) | \(q \leftrightarrow \neg p\) |
|---|---|-----------|------------------------------|
| T | T |           |                               |
| T | F |           |                               |
| F | T |           |                               |
| F | F |           |                               |

Expert Solution
Step 1

Truth table:

The truth table is a tabular view of all combinations of values for the inputs and their corresponding outputs. It is a mathematical table that shows all possible results that may be occur from all possible scenarios. It is used for logic tasks such as logic algebra and electronic circuits.

Negation:

In logic, negation, also called the logical complement, is an operation that takes a proposition to another proposition "not ", written, or. It is interpreted intuitively as being true when is false, and false when is true. Negation is thus a unary logical connective.

if and only if:

In logic and related fields such as mathematics and philosophy, " if and only if " (shortened as " iff ") is a biconditional logical connective between statements, where either both statements are true or both are false.
