Question
In a certain language different symbols represent different operators as follows.
- Ξ means X = Y
- ∩ means X ≤ Y
- ⊗ means X ≮ (not less than) Y
- ≅ means X < Y
- ¢ means X > Y
Statements: L ∩ M; M ≅ N; N ¢ O;
Conclusions:
- L Ξ O
- L ≅ N
A
both I and II are true.
B
only conclusion II is true.
C
only conclusion I is true.
D
either I or II can be true.
Soln.
Ans: b
Ans: b
The statements can be translated to L ≤ M < N > O. Conclusion I translates to L = O. Conclusion II translates to L < N. So we can see that only conclusion II is true.
Please remember that in such questions ≯ (not more than) is same as ≤, and ≮ (not less than) is same as ≥.
