e) None of these

The correct answers to the above question in:

Answer: (d)

δ ⇒ ≥* ⇒ ≤% ⇒ <
$⇒ >@ ⇒ = 

K @ F ⇒ K = F

F $ M ⇒ F > M

M δ T ⇒ M ≥ T

Therefore, K = F > M ≥ T

(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q

(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q

B © N ⇒ B > N

N @ R ⇒ N ≥ R

F * R ⇒ F ≤ R

Therefore, B > N ≥ R ≥ F

Conclusions

II. F * N ⇒ F ≤ N : Not True

III. R $ B ⇒ R < B: True

Question : 5

Statements:
M @ D, D δ K, K © R

(iii) P δ Q ⇒ P = Q

(iv) P @ Q ⇒ P ≥ Q

(v) P * Q ⇒ P ≤ Q

M @ D ⇒ M ≥ D

D δ K ⇒ D = K

K © R ⇒ K > R

Therefore, M ≥ D = K > R

Conclusions

I. R $ M ⇒ R < M: True

II. K δ M ⇒ K = M: Not True

III. K $ M ⇒ K < M : Not True

K is either smaller than or equal to M.

Therefore, either II or III is true.

Question : 6
