Does this phrase introduce the sufficient or necessary condition? Ex. Tina will enter the pool, if and only if Mike enters.
T->M
or
M->T
Thanks!
PS, I'm thinking it is the latter of the two.

As @elliottscott8814 noted it's both.
The if gives us
M-->T
If Mike enters then Tina will enter.
The only if gives us
T-->M
Only if Mike enters will Tina enter. So if Tina enters Mike must have entered.
And also as you can probably see, both
¬T --> ¬M
from M-->T
and
¬M -->¬T
from T-->M
Biconditionals are powerful things!
The conditional lessons are crucial. You'll mentally enjoy.

It's not "T->M or M->T" but it is "T->M and M->T"
