1. Ananya and Bharath cannot be in the same team.
2. Chitra must be assigned to Team Alpha.

Based on these rules, which of the following statements are correct?

  1. Deepak must be assigned to Team Beta.Cevap
  2. Chitra and Deepak are always in different teams.Cevap
  3. C
    Ananya must always be assigned to Team Alpha alongside Chitra.
  4. D
    Bharath and Deepak must always be assigned to the same team.

Cevap

The correct statements are that Deepak must be assigned to Team Beta, and Chitra and Deepak are always in different teams.
Team Alpha consists of Chitra and either Ananya or Bharath. This fills both spots in Team Alpha. Consequently, Team Beta must consist of Deepak and whichever member of the pair (Ananya or Bharath) was not placed in Team Alpha. This makes the statement that Deepak is in Team Beta true, and the statement that Chitra and Deepak are in different teams also true.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze team sizes and placement of fixed members.
Each team must have 2 members. Chitra is in Team Alpha. Team Beta needs 2 members.
Rule 2 fixes Chitra in Team Alpha.
2
Apply separation condition for Ananya and Bharath.
Ananya and Bharath must be in different teams. Exactly one of them will join Chitra in Team Alpha, and the other will go to Team Beta.
Rule 1 dictates they cannot share a team.
3
Determine the placement of Deepak.
Team Alpha is filled by Chitra and one of {Ananya, Bharath}. The remaining slots in Team Beta are filled by Deepak and the other person from {Ananya, Bharath}. Therefore, Deepak is definitely in Team Beta.
Deepak is the only remaining person available to fill the second slot in Team Beta.
