Understanding the Statements
To analyze the conclusions drawn from the given statements, we start by breaking down the information provided.
Given Statements:
- All hill-stations have a lake.
- Ooty has two lakes.
Analyzing the Conclusions:
Now, we will evaluate the validity of each conclusion based on these statements.
Conclusion (i): Ooty is not a hill-station.
- This statement cannot be inferred because the first statement only asserts that all hill-stations have at least one lake. Ooty having two lakes does not negate its status as a hill-station. Therefore, this conclusion is not logically valid.
Conclusion (ii): No hill-station can have more than one lake.
- The second statement regarding Ooty indicates that it indeed has two lakes. This directly contradicts the conclusion that no hill-station can have more than one lake. Hence, this conclusion is also not logically valid.
Final Evaluation:
Given the analysis above, we can summarize:
- Neither conclusion (i) nor conclusion (ii) is logically valid based on the information provided.
- The correct answer is option 'D': neither (i) nor (ii).
Key Takeaways:
- The premises do not support the negation of Ooty being a hill-station.
- The existence of two lakes in Ooty contradicts the claim that no hill-station can have more than one lake.
In conclusion, both statements are unsupported by the original premises, leading to the understanding that the answer is indeed 'D'.
