The statement p-→q is called conditional statement because p -q asserts that q is true on the condition that p holds. A useful way to understand the truth value of such conditional statement is to determine the case where p is True : Let: A -(9, 11,13 ): B- (3,5 ): "If x is prime number, then y is an odd number" Illustrate and justify the truth value for the above mentioned conditional statement, where x € A and y €B
