Statements: L $ M % Q © S # T π P

Conclusion: 

I. T © L

II. L © S

  • A.only conclusion I is true.
  • B.only conclusion II is true.
  • C.either conclusion I or II is true.
  • D.neither conclusion I nor II is true.
  • E.if both conclusions I and II are true. 

Answer: B

Correct answer: only conclusion II is true.

This set’s code reads \(\#\) as “smaller than”, \(©\) as “greater than”, \(\pi\) as \(\le\), \(\$\) as \(\ge\), and \(\%\) as “neither smaller nor greater”, that is \(=\). The statement becomes \[ L \ge M = Q > S < T \le P. \] S is a low point, so the chain reverses there.

II. \( L > S \): both elements sit on the left of the pivot, joined by \( L \ge M = Q > S \), which contains a strict link. True.

I. \( T > L \): T lies on the right of the pivot and L on the left, so no chain runs between them. With \( S = 1 \), \( L = 9, T = 2 \) and \( L = 2, T = 9 \) both satisfy every statement. Not determined.

Only II follows.
