I would have turned the 5 card too. Why? Because it says to test the truth of the proposition. So it's saying all bets are off, whatever I told you may or may not be true. Only what you see (the table with the 4 cards) is real.
If you still assume that each of which has a number on one side and a colored patch on the other side holds, then no need to check 5. But if you focus on testing the final proposition, I'm not sure anymore of what I should assume...
Summary: poorly worded problem.
- Jtsummers 11y agoThe proposition: Which card(s) must you turn over in order to test the truth of the proposition that if a card shows an even number on one face, then its opposite face is red? The rest is given information, not the proposition.
