Let p and q represent the following simple statements p: The percent body fat in women peaks at age 55 q: The percent body fat in men peaks at age 65. Write the symbolic statement in words. Then use the information given by the graph to determine the truth value tilde p or q. Write the symbolic statement tilde p or q in words. Choose the correct compound statement below that represents tilde p or q. The percent body fat in women doesn't peak at age 55 or the percent body fat in men doesn't peak at age 65. The percent body fat in women doesn't peak at age 55 or the percent body fat in men peaks at age 65. The percent body fat in women peaks at age 55 or the percent body fat in men doesn't peak at age 65. The percent body fat in women peaks at age 55 or the percent body fat in men peaks at age 65. Using the information given by the graph, the truth value of tilde p or q is
