Example 4 Find a counterexample for the conditional statement. If Joe did not eat lunch, then he must be sick.
26
Example 4 Find a counterexample for the conditional statement. If the traffic light is red, then the car is stopped.
27
Example 4 Find a counterexample for the conditional statement. If the commutative property is true for multiplication, then it is true for division.
