Which one of the following could be a complete and accurate list of the representatives who present?

Explain please

I don't understand. Because it says that if Q doesn't present, then P does. But in the answer, both present

That rule does not say that they can't both present. It says if not q then p. It does not say if q not p. Make sure to read the rules carefully and not to add in new rules that aren't there.

Wouldn't it be then: If not p, then q ?

The way the initial rule is written it would be if not Q then P, however, it's the same thing as saying if not P then Q. The statements are contrapositives of each other, so they really do mean the same thing.
