Question Details

Directions: In the following question assuming the given statements to be True, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.


Statements: Y > U ≥ Z ≥ K = X ≤ B ≤ A

Conclusions:

I. U = X

II. U > X

Options

A

Only conclusion I follow

B

Only conclusion II follow

C

Both I and II are follow

D

Either conclusion I or II follow

E

None of these

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

Either conclusion I or II follow

Solution :

The correct answer is Either conclusion I or II follow.

Step-by-step Explanation:

Step 1: Analyze the given statement
The given combined inequality statement is:
Y>UZK=XBA

Step 2: Derive the relationship between U and X
Let us extract the relevant path from U to X from the statement:
UZK=X

Since K=X, we can substitute X in place of K:
UZX

Combining these inequalities gives the definitive relationship:
UX

This combined inequality UX means that either U>X is true OR U=X is true.

Step 3: Evaluate the given conclusions
Conclusion I: U=X (Individually false / Not definitely true)
Conclusion II: U>X (Individually false / Not definitely true)

Step 4: Check for Either-Or condition
1. Both conclusions share the same elements (U and X).
2. Both conclusions individually cannot be declared definitely true based on the statement alone.
3. Together, the two options (U=X and U>X) cover all possibilities of the relation UX.

Therefore, Either conclusion I or II follow.
