Decide whether the statement makes sense. Explain your reasoning.If "unconscious" means "not located in the United States," then Florida is not unconscious.

What will be an ideal response?


Makes sense. You might think the statement does not make sense since the definition of "unconscious" is not actually "not located in the United States"and the assertion about Florida does not, on its own, make sense. However, the only question is whether if the definition were correct, the assertion about Florida would be correct. If "unconscious" means "not located in the United States," then "Florida is not unconscious" could be rephrased as "Florida is not not located in the United States" and then, replacing the double negation, "Florida is located in the United States." That assertion is clearly true. (Explanations will vary.)
