In this problem, we have been asked to determine which of the given are propositions, and we need to find the truth values of the ones that are propositions.
00:10
Now, a proposition is a statement that can be either true or false.
00:15
It has to be just exactly one of them.
00:18
It's either true or false, and it cannot be both.
00:21
So, using this definition, let us consider the first statement, which is do not pass go.
00:27
Now, this statement is just an order.
00:31
It's telling someone to do something, so this cannot have a truth value.
00:35
It is neither true nor false, so it is not a proposition.
00:41
The second statement is what time is it? now, that is a question.
00:46
So this doesn't have a truth value either.
00:48
This question cannot be true.
00:50
It cannot be false either.
00:51
So that means it is not a proposition.
00:56
The third statement is there are no black flies in maine.
01:02
Now, this will be a proposition.
01:05
This is because this statement will either be true or false.
01:10
And in this case, there are no black flies in maine...
