In the following questions, the symbols * $ § © and % are used with the following meaning as illustrated below:
‘A § B’ means ‘A is neither greater than nor equal to B’.
‘A % B’ means ‘A is neither smaller than nor greater than B’.
‘A * B’ means ‘A is not greater than B’.
‘A $ B’ means ‘A is greater than B.
‘A © B’ means ‘A is either greater than or equal to B’.
Now in each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the two conclusions ! and II given below them is/ are definitely true ?
Give answer a: if only Conclusion I is true.
Give answer b: if only Conclusion II is true.
Give answer c: if either Conclusion 1 or II is true.
Give answer d: if neither Conclusion I nor II is true.
Give answer e: if both Conclusions I and 11 are true.
Statements :
B§A, A * M, W©M
Conclusions :
I. W $ B
II. A* W
the statements and their meanings are as follows:
B§A:B<A
A * M:{A}$$\leq$${M}
W©M:{M}$$\leq$${W}
a simplified equation that can be formed is: B<{A}$$\leq$${M}$$\leq$${W}.
conclusion I. W $ B implies W>B, TRUE as can be inferred from the simplified equation.
conclusion II. A* W implies {A}$$\leq$${W},TRUE as can be inferred from the simplified equation.
since both the conclusions can be followed from the statements simultaneously therefore the correct option is option E
