Given below are four statements. Among them two are related in such a way that they can both be true but they cannot both be false. Select the code that indicates those two statements : Statements : (a) Honest people never suffer. (b) Almost all honest people do suffer. (c) Honest people hardly suffer. (d) Each and every honest person suffers. Correct Answer (a) and (c)
“Both be true but they cannot both be false”.
1) (a) and (b)
(a) Honest people never suffer.
(b) Almost all honest people do suffer.
If ‘a’ is true then ‘b’ is false and vice-versa.
So, this code is not the correct combination.
2) (a) and (c)
(a) Honest people never suffer.
(c) Honest people hardly suffer.
Both the statements are true when taken together.
So, this code is the correct combination.
3)(a) and (d)
(a) Honest people never suffer.
(d) Each and every honest person suffers.
If ‘a’ is true then ‘d’ is false and vice-versa.
So, this code is not the correct combination.
4) (b) and (c)
(b) Almost all honest people do suffer.
(c) Honest people hardly suffer.
If ‘b’ is true then ‘c’ is false and vice-versa.
So, this code is not the correct combination.
Hence, ‘(a) and (c)’ is the correct answer.
