Question

A statement is given followed by two conclusions. Find which conclusion is FALSE based on the given statement.

Statement:
$P \ge T ; Q = R \ge U ; V \ge R > S ; T \ge Q$
Conclusions:
I: $V \ge Q$
II: $P > S$

The correct answer is
Neither I nor II

Analyze Logical Reasoning Statement and Conclusions

The question requires identifying the FALSE conclusion based on a given statement containing inequalities.

Statement Breakdown

The given statement can be broken down into the following relationships:

  • $P \ge T$
  • $Q = R \ge U$
  • $V \ge R > S$
  • $T \ge Q$

Evaluating Conclusion I: $V \ge Q$

We need to determine if the relationship $V \ge Q$ is true.

  • From the statement, we have the equality $Q = R$.
  • We also know that $V \ge R$.
  • By substituting $R$ with $Q$ (since $Q=R$), the inequality $V \ge R$ becomes $V \ge Q$.
  • Therefore, Conclusion I is TRUE.

Evaluating Conclusion II: $P > S$

We need to determine if the relationship $P > S$ is true.

Let's combine the relevant inequalities from the statement to form a chain:

$P \ge T$

$T \ge Q$

$Q = R$

$R > S$

Combining these gives the sequence: $P \ge T \ge Q = R > S$.

Since $R > S$, and $P \ge T \ge Q = R$, it logically follows that $P$ must be greater than $S$.

Therefore, Conclusion II is TRUE.

Identifying the False Conclusion

Our analysis shows that both Conclusion I ($V \ge Q$) and Conclusion II ($P > S$) are TRUE based on the provided statement.

The question asks to identify the conclusion that is FALSE.

Since neither Conclusion I nor Conclusion II is false, the correct answer is that Neither I nor II is false.
