Someone, please walk me through the last part, because it took me FOREVER to correctly translate the "unless" clause, and I would love a quick "hack" to reference for "unless" preceded by "will not." - It is simply a double negative??
I understand where I was wrong however I went with my opinion and thought if traffic decrease then increase in people living because in the real world that can be true, less traffic more people living but then also that can increase the traffic, idkkk but basically forgot to do the rules for group 3
Doing the conditional and set logic was a STRUGGLE. It probably took me months... but oh my goodness, it is a must. Go this right (-1.22)!!!! My brain looks like a mad scientist's whiteboard mapping these conditional relationships... it finally works.
I'm trying to get faster so I just ripped B after 40 seconds and went to BR. Did BR for 2 and got B again so I was -1:30, so pretty content with this one.
Makes me feel better that other people also felt this one was tricky. I’m glad my intuition helped me get the right answer because I had a hard time mapping the Lawgic. For some reason I didn’t make the connection in sentence 1 and sentence 2 that consumer living in DT increase and I separated the claims. I’m starting to apply the lessons while reading the stimulus so I’m feeling good. It took me about 3 mins but I got it right. Video helped me map out the lawgic. Also I’m glad I realized the and was not a conjunction but a separate conditional.

Yay! Got it right and correctly wrote it out this time
LOL the lack of trust in myself - did the whole thing and in note pad wrote B can be true and chose A cause why not lol
Why wasn't the last necessary condition (trafic decreases) not negated since it is preceeded by "unless"?
DO NOT FEEL BAD THAT YOU ARE NOT MEETING TIMES! ITS BETTER TO UNDERSTAND CONCEPTS SLOWLY THAN TO MEET TIMES AND GET THEM WRONG!!!!!!
How does the final translation work?
In order for profits to decrease, downtown traffic must first decrease. So how can we place congestion decrease after profits increase in the chain?
Absolutely BUTCHERED this one. Reading through the description I now realize my ignorance, gotta start somewhere I guess.
i have never overcomplicated a question more in my life but i got it right !!
got this right but 1:53 over... A WIN IS A WIN

I got it right. keep going guys!
I GOT IT RIGHTTTTT !!!!

Got it right i am the 8th sage
i got the answer right, but I did the logic with a conjunction :(

I can't believe I evaluated every answer exactly the same as the video :)
got it right and finally didn't second guess myself! (-0:29) as well
I got it right with 3:35 minutes. I've gotten every MBT question correct so far!
I'm trying to get faster so I just ripped B after 40 seconds and went to BR. Did BR for 2 and got B again so I was -1:30, so pretty content with this one.
I got this right but took longer than needed... hoping to get some tricks on how to speed up as the diagramming takes a while (but I struggle w/o it)
I got it right but it literally took me 6 minutes lol
