Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Given:
P < T, Y > W, and P >= Y.
Conclusion (I): W <= P
Since P >= Y and Y > W, we have P > W. Therefore W <= P is definitely true.
Conclusion (II): T > Y
Since P >= Y, we can write Y <= P. Also P < T. Hence Y <= P < T, so Y < T and therefore T > Y.
Both conclusions (I) and (II) follow.
