If \(m\) is true (we order meatballs), \(p\) is false (we don't order pasta), and \(r\) is false (Rob is not happy), then the statement is false, because we satisfied the antecedent but Rob did not satisfy the consequent.

When a number is raised to the second power, it is said to be squared. When a number is raised to the third power, it is said to be cubed. When a number is raised to the power of 4 or higher, we simply say that that number is raised to that particular power.

There are two approaches we could take to this problem: 1) estimate the number of boards we will need and find the cost per board, or 2) estimate the area of the deck and find the approximate cost per square foot for deck boards.

In real life, problem solving requires identifying an appropriate formula or procedure, and determining what information you will need (and won’t need) to answer the question.

The argument uses the general premise that all poets are writers to conclude specifically that Poe is a writer since he wrote poems. A deductive argument is considered sound if, assuming that all the premises are true, the conclusion follows logically from those premises. The premises are true and the argument is valid, thus, this argument is sound.

If you don’t want to drive from Boston to New York, then you will have to take the train. The “Cheatriots” have a history of bending or breaking the rules, so Brady must have told the equipment manager to make sure that the footballs were underinflated.
