Given the original statement "If a number is negative, the additive inverse is positive," which are true? Select three

options.

If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the original statement is p

q

.

p = a number is negative and g = the additive inverse is positive, the inverse of the original statement is - p

-9.

Olf p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the converse of the original statement is - --p.

q = a number is negative and p = the additive inverse is positive, the contrapositive of the original statement is - p

-9.

- a number is negative and p = the additive inverse is positive, the converse of the original statement is q-p.

If p = a number is negative and q = the additive inverse is positive, the original statement is p → q.

Step-by-step explanation:

The logic statement p → q means if p then q, that is, if p is true then q is true.

Our statement is: "If a number is negative, the additive inverse is positive" which has the form p → q with

p = a number is negative

q = the additive inverse is positive
