Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

Only I is true

Solution :

Correct Answer: Only I is true


Step-by-Step Explanation:


Let's analyze the given statements step-by-step to check the validity of each conclusion.


Given Statements:

1. U=B<I

2. X>MU=P<E

3. O=PD<H>Z


Checking Conclusion I: X>O

From the second statement, we have: X>MU=P

From the third statement, we know: P=O

Combining these relations: X>MU=P=O

Therefore, we get: X>O

Thus, Conclusion I is definitely true.


Checking Conclusion II: E>I

From statement 1: U<I

From statement 2: U=P<E

Comparing E and I via U:

E>U and I>U

Since both E and I are greater than U, we cannot establish a direct relationship between E and I.

Thus, Conclusion II is not definitely true.


Checking Conclusion III: H<O

From statement 3: O=PD<H

This clearly implies: O<H, which is equivalent to H>O.

Hence, the claim H<O is false.

Thus, Conclusion III is false.


Conclusion:

Only Conclusion I follows.
