1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the equivalent implication of x    yx \implies y.

2. Solution Steps

The contrapositive of the implication x    yx \implies y is ¬y    ¬x\neg y \implies \neg x.
This means "if not yy, then not xx". An implication and its contrapositive are logically equivalent.
Now let's analyze the given options:
A. ¬y    ¬x\neg y \implies \neg x. This is the contrapositive and therefore the correct answer.
B. y    ¬xy \implies \neg x. This is the inverse.
C. ¬x    ¬y\neg x \implies \neg y. This is the converse.
D. y    xy \implies x. This is the converse.

3. Final Answer

A. ¬y    ¬x\neg y \implies \neg x
