In the following questions the symbols $$\delta$$, @ © ,% and $$\bigstar$$ are used with the following meaning a illustrated below:
‘P © Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’
‘P%Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal toQ’
‘P $$\bigstar$$ Q’ ‘P is neither greater than nor equal to Q’
‘P$$\delta$$Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q’
‘P@Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q’
