B Correct answer
Explanation

The converse of 'If P then Q' is 'If Q then P'. Thus, the converse of 'If I have a Siberian Husky, then I have a dog' is 'If I have a dog, then I have a Siberian Husky'.

C Correct answer
Explanation

The expression ~(p -> q) is equivalent to (p AND ~q). The expression (~p OR ~q) is the negation of (p AND q). These are not equivalent, so the statement is neither a tautology nor a contradiction.
