Answer 1

Law of Detachment (just taking symbol) if p leads to q, and p is true, q is true.

In this case, at Saturday, Nina's family rents movies. Because today is Saturday, the action "rents movies" is also true. Therefore, this is the Law of Detachment

Yeah, sorry if I'm wrong, I only remember a bit.

Answer 2

Answer: Choice D

Law of detachment

================================================

Explanation:

The law of detachment takes on the following format:

• Premise 1: If P, then Q
• Premise 2: Statement P is true
• Conclusion: Statement Q is true

Think of it like a chain of dominoes. Statement P leads to statement Q.

In this case, statement P is "It is Saturday" while statement Q is "Nina's family rents movies"
