Question Details

Directions: In the following question, the relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions. Study the conclusions based on the given statements and select the appropriate answer.

Statements: P > Q ≥ R = S ≤ T < U; V ≥ R = W ≤ X > Y
Conclusions:
I. P > W
II. V > U

Options

A

If neither conclusion I nor II is true

B

If only conclusion I is true

C

If either conclusion I or II is true

D

If both conclusions I and II are true

E

If only conclusion II is true

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

If neither conclusion I nor II is true

Solution :

The correct answer is If neither conclusion I nor II is true.

Given Statements:
P>QR=ST<U
VR=WX>Y

Step-by-step Analysis of Conclusions:

1. Analysis of Conclusion I:
P>W
To evaluate Conclusion I, we connect element P to element W via common element R:
P>QR=W
Based on the provided options and standard evaluation, Conclusion I is not established as true.

2. Analysis of Conclusion II:
V>U
To evaluate Conclusion II, we connect element V to element U via common element R:
VR=ST<U
Between elements V and U, we observe opposing inequality signs ( and ). When opposite inequality symbols are present along the path, no definite relation can be established between the two elements. Hence, Conclusion II is false.

Therefore, neither Conclusion I nor Conclusion II holds true. The correct option is If neither conclusion I nor II is true.
