Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: D

(∼p→q)→q(\sim p\to q)\to q fails only when ∼p→q\sim p\to q is true and qq is false, i.e. qq false and pp true. In that case p→qp\to q is false, so the whole implication is true. In every other case it is true too: the statement is a tautology.
