Hi Voodoo,

Yes, correct. I will note for others reading that you've presented the contrapositive of the first statement. Read as-is, I would normally diagram that as Effective Enforceable, but the contrapositive removes both negatives, which is helpful.

Thanks!

Hi, I'm a little lost with this stimulus. I was able to get NotEffective --> NotLaw and the contrapositive however I could not get from Enforcable to Effective. Can you please expand on how to get there?

And also looking at your explanation above, I see a contradiction for answer choice A. The way its notated is very different than what I learnt in the Bible, page 197 - No robot can think. R---> NotThink. canyon please explain the discrepancy?

Thank you for the response. I understand it was a response to another student but its part of the explanation for the stimulus. I'm simply trying to understand what I missed as to why I didn't get enforceable and effective in the conditional? If you could help break down my thinking pls

LawSchoolDream,

The statements the student asked about are not in the stimulus at all. This is a Justify question. We're trying to find an answer choice that, when added to the stimulus, makes the argument perfect.

Adam's post in this thread explains why we'd even want to add a connection between enforceability and efficacy to this argument: viewtopic.php?p=43935#p43935
