Question

Chapter 2.1, Problem 17WE

To determine

To state: The converse of statement and state whether it is true or false

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 17WE

The statement is true.

The converse of the given statement is false

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given statement is:

"If x=−6, then |x|=6"

It is known that |x|=−x if x is negative.

Here, x=−6

Thus,

|x|=−(−6)=6

Therefore, the statement is true.

Consider p is " x=−6" and q is "|x|=6"

The converse is of the form "if q ,then p″

Therefore, the converse of the given statement is

If |x|=6 then x=−6

If |x|=6 means x=±6

That is x has two values 6 or -6

Therefore, the converse of the given statement is false.
