I present to you a deck of 4 cards. Each card has on one side a letter of the alphabet, and on the other side a single digit from 0-9.
I propose a hypothesis that may apply to this deck:
If the letter is 'E', then the number on the other side is '4'.
I then drop the 4 cards on the table, and you see:
'B', '7', 'E', '4' (on the respective cards).
Which of the 4 cards must you turn over to verify or disprove my hypothesis?
THERE IS NO WAY TO PROVE OR DISPROVE IT. IN THE PROBLEM IT SAYS THE HYPOTHESIS MAY APPLY TO THIS DECK, SO REGARDLESS OF WHAT CARD YOU TURN OVER YOU STILL CAN'T PROVE ANYTHING BECAUSE THERE IS NO DEFINITE HYPOTESIS.
