Question

Let: p:x< -3
Let: q:x >3
what is represented by p V q

A. X <-3 and x>3
B. x>3 or x< -3
C. if x <-3, then x>3
D. X<-3 if and only if x>3​

Answer 1

Answer: B. x > 3 or x < -3

The "V" represents "or". It represents a disjunction.

The statement p V q is false when both p and q are false. Otherwise, p V q is true.

The order of p and q does not matter for any disjunction. So p V q is the same as q V p.
