Consider the given statements and the conclusions that follow. Evaluate which of the conclusions logically follows from the statements.

Statements:
1. All newly purchased city buses are equipped with air conditioning.
2. Bus number 405 is a newly purchased city bus.

Conclusions:
I. Bus number 405 is equipped with air conditioning.
II. Bus number 405 is the most comfortable bus in the city fleet.

Which of the following options is correct?

  1. Only conclusion I followsCevap
  2. B
    Only conclusion II follows
  3. C
    Both conclusion I and conclusion II follow
  4. D
    Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows

Cevap

Only conclusion I follows.
The option stating that only the first conclusion follows is correct because the first statement establishes a universal rule (all new buses have air conditioning) and the second statement explicitly places Bus 405 into that category. The second conclusion introduces outside concepts like 'comfort' which are not supported by the given text.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze Statement 1 and Statement 2
Identify that being a newly purchased city bus guarantees the presence of air conditioning, and Bus 405 belongs to this category.
To establish the direct logical rules and relationships provided in the text.
2
Evaluate Conclusion I
Conclusion I logically follows.
Since Bus 405 is a newly purchased bus, it must have air conditioning according to the explicit rule in Statement 1.
3
Evaluate Conclusion II
Conclusion II does not follow.
Comfort is subjective and is not mentioned anywhere in the statements, making it an invalid assumption.
