  1. In the questions given below, certain symbols are used with the following meanings:
    'A@B' means 'A is greater than B'.
    'A*B' means 'A is either greater than or equal to B'.
    'A#B' means 'A is equal to B'.
    'A$B' means 'A is either smaller than or equal to B'.
    'A+B' means 'A is smaller than B'.

    Statements: B + D, E $ T, T * P, P @ B
    Conclusions: I. P $ D  II. P @ D
  2. A.
    if only conclusion I is true.
    B.
    if only conclusion II is true.
    C.
    if either conclusion I or II is true.
    D.
    if neither conclusion I nor II is true.
    E.
    if both the conclusions I and II are true.

    Answer : Option C

    Explanation :

    B < D -- (i); E ≤ T -- (ii); T ≥ P -- (iii); P > B -- (iv)

    From (i) and (iv), we get, P > B < D => no conclusion. But the exhaustive possibilities are P > D, P = D and P < D. Hence either I or II is true.
