I answered this question correctly, then watched the explanation video, and the diagram there was different then the one I set up. She treated the If portion of the first sentence of the passage as an umbrella term, so to speak, but that's not what I did. This is what I did: CMCFU + IG ----> NCI Is this correct also? This way seems to yield an additional inferences that from my perspective wouldn't be obvious with the other diagram.

    Hi @Kweb1016, Thanks for the question! Yes, that is a correct diagram! We can diagram the statement CMCFU —> (~NCI —> ~IG) and take a contrapositive to get CMCFU —> IG —> NCI which is equivalent to CMCFU & IG —> NCI Very good job diagramming! Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any other questions that you might have.
