Solution

To determine the truth values of p and q in the given statement, let's analyze the expression p → (¬p ∨ q) when it is false.

  1. The expression p → (¬p ∨ q) is false when the antecedent (p) is true and the consequent (¬p ∨ q) is false.

  2. Since the antecedent (p) is true, we can conclude that p is true.

  3. Now, let's analyze the consequent (¬p ∨ q). Since the entire expression is false, the consequent must also be false.

  4. The expression ¬p ∨ q is false when both ¬p and q are false.

  5. Since the consequent (¬p ∨ q) is false, we can conclude that both ¬p and q are false.

Therefore, the truth values of p and q in the given statement are p = true and q = false.
