Question

the following is a quote by famed physicist albert einstein: if you cant explain it simply, you dont understand it well enough. this statement can be rewritten as the conditional: if you can explain it simply, then you understand it well enough. complete the table to determine the converse, the inverse, and the contrapositive of the conditional.

Explanation:

Let the conditional statement be \(p
ightarrow q\) where \(p\) is "you can explain it simply" and \(q\) is "you don't understand it well - enough".

Step1: Define converse

The converse of \(p
ightarrow q\) is \(q
ightarrow p\).
So the converse is "If you don't understand it well - enough, then you can explain it simply".

Step2: Define inverse

The inverse of \(p
ightarrow q\) is \(
eg p
ightarrow
eg q\).
So the inverse is "If you can't explain it simply, then you understand it well - enough".

Step3: Define contra - positive

The contra - positive of \(p
ightarrow q\) is \(
eg q
ightarrow
eg p\).
So the contra - positive is "If you understand it well - enough, then you can't explain it simply".

Answer:

Statement	Converse, inverse, or Contrapositive
If you can't explain it simply, then you understand it well - enough	Inverse
If you understand it well - enough, then you can't explain it simply	Contrapositive
