ok, i have a SAT prep book, and one of the strategies it talks about is how to deal with a sentence in which one clause negates another. The example sentence they give is :
"Not making a decision is not the same as being ____"
and the answer choices are : adamant, confused, decisive, indecisive, inconclusive.
The book says to remove the second "not" in the sentence and this will help you find the correct answer which the book says is indecisive. I dont understand how removing the second "not" helps, doesn't that change the meaning of the sentence? Plz help
