Statements: R ≤ S ≥ Q ≥ P ≥ T. Conclusions: I. S > T II. R > Q. Which of the conclusions is definitely true?

Correct answer A. Neither conclusion I nor II is true

Explanation

I: S ≥ Q ≥ P ≥ T gives only S ≥ T, so I (S > T) does not follow. II: in R ≤ S ≥ Q the signs change direction, so R and Q are not related and II fails.
