In the following question the symbols © , $$\delta$$, $$\bigstar$$ and % are used with the following meaning as illustrated below.
‘P $$\delta$$ Q means ‘P is not greater than Q’
‘P % Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’
‘P © Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q’
‘P $ Q’ means ‘P is greater than Q’
‘P $$\bigstar$$ Q’ means ‘P is smaller than Q’
Now in each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true find which of the two Conclusions I and II given below them is/are definitely true ?
Give answer
a:If only Conclusion I is true
b:If only Conclusion II is true
c:If either Conclusion I or II is true
d:If neither Conclusion I nor II is true
e:If both Conclusion I and II are true
Statement R$J, J%M, M © K
Conclusions I.K © J II.K $$\bigstar$$J
The statements are :
R > J , J $$\geq$$ M , M = K
After combining the above inequalities, we get :
R > J $$\geq$$ M = K
Conclusions :
K = J and K < J
Since, K $$\leq$$ J
Thus, either conclusion I or II is true.
