1. which of the following is a conditional statement?

it is going to rain today and tomorrow.
if i finish my chores, then i will go to the park.
i need to wash my car before friday.
i made meatloaf for dinner with mashed potatoes.

Explanation:

A conditional statement has the form "If \(p\), then \(q\)" where \(p\) (the hypothesis) and \(q\) (the conclusion) are statements. The statement "If I finish my chores, then I will go to the park" follows this "If - then" structure. The other statements ("It is going to rain today and tomorrow" - a conjunction, "I need to wash my car before Friday" - a simple statement, "I made meatloaf for dinner with mashed potatoes" - a simple statement) do not follow the conditional "If - then" form.

Answer:

If I finish my chores, then I will go to the park.
