Question 13

___ are the meanings of statements

Answer 13

propositions

Question 14

Proposition is a ____ statement that is either true or false but not both

Answer 14

declarative

Question 15

We say that the truth value of a proposition is either true (T) or false (F) which corresponds to___in digital circuits

Answer 15

1 and 0

Question 16

Proposition or not?
The current president of the United States is Joe Biden.

Answer 16

This is a proposition because it is a declarative sentence and we can determine its truth value by checking facts that will prove that Joe Biden is the incumbent president of the US. At this point, the truth value of this proposition is TRUE.

Question 17

Proposition or not?
Do you have extra paper?

Answer 17

This is NOT a proposition because it is not a declarative statement. It is an interrogative statement and we cannot determine its truth value to be true or false
