c) if either I or II is implicit.

d) if neither I nor II is implicit.

e) if both I and II are implicit.

Hence, II is not implicit.

Question : 32

Statement:
The parents of students are demonstrating at Legislative Council to protest against fee hike revision by the capital’s educational institutions.
Assumptions:
I. The parents are unable to afford increased fee.
II. In view of large-scale protestation Legislative Council may direct the capital’s educational institutions to stop the fee hike.

c) if either I or II is implicit.

d) if neither I nor II is implicit.

e) if both I and II are implicit.

Even able parents may be not willing to pay the increased fee.

Hence I can’t be assumed. Why are they demonstrating in front of Legislative Council? Clearly, they are assuming II.

Hence II is implicit.

d) if neither I nor II is implicit.

Hence, II is also implicit.
