Correct option is C
I. H < J (False) II. H = J (False).
Explanation:
1. Merging the Statements
The statements share the variable G:
Statement 1: E=F>G=H
Statement 2: G≤I=J≤K
Since G=H and I=J, we can substitute these values into the second statement to find the direct relationship between H and J:
H≤J
2. Evaluating the Conclusions
The relationship H≤J means that either H is less than J (H<J) or H is equal to J (H=J).
Conclusion I: H < J This is not definitely true on its own because H could be equal to J.
Conclusion II: H = J This is not definitely true on its own because H could be less than J.
3. The "Either-Or" Logic
Since H and J must be related by one of these two conditions, and both conditions (< and =) together cover the entire relationship established by H≤J, this is a classic Either-Or case.
Final Answer: Either Conclusion I or II follows.
