Solution Steps

To write the statement $\sim p \wedge \sim q$ in Python, we need to understand that $\sim p$ represents the negation of $p$ and $\sim q$ represents the negation of $q$. The symbol $\wedge$ represents the logical AND operation. Therefore, $\sim p \wedge \sim q$ means "not p AND not q."

Step 1: Define the Statements

Let \( p \) represent the statement "She has green eyes," and let \( q \) represent the statement "He is 60 years old."

Step 2: Negate the Statements

The negation of \( p \) is \( \neg p \), and the negation of \( q \) is \( \neg q \).

Step 3: Combine the Negations with Logical AND

The statement \( \neg p \wedge \neg q \) means "not \( p \) AND not \( q \)."

Step 4: Evaluate the Logical Expression

Given \( p = \text{True} \) and \( q = \text{True} \):

  • \( \neg p = \text{False} \)
  • \( \neg q = \text{False} \)
  • \( \neg p \wedge \neg q = \text{False} \)

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{\text{False}} \]
