Understanding the Symbols
To decode the expressions, we need to understand the meanings of the symbols involved:
- A B means A is the son of B.
- A I means A is the sister of B.
- A + B means A is the brother of B.
- A B means A is the mother of B.
Analyzing the Question
We are asked to find the expression that represents "B is the husband of A." In logical terms, if B is the husband of A, then:
- A must be female (as B is male).
- The relationship must indicate a connection of marriage.
Breaking Down the Correct Answer
The correct option is A I + E B. Let's decode this step-by-step:
- A I: This indicates that A is the sister of some person (let's say E).
- E B: This indicates that E is the mother of B.
Now, if A is the sister of E and E is the mother of B, it follows that B is A's brother.
However, for B to be the husband of A, we need to include the relationship of marriage implicitly. The expression does not directly state the marriage but implies familial connections that can be understood to indicate that B (as A's brother) could also be in a marital relationship with A.
Conclusion
Thus, the expression A I + E B indirectly suggests the relationship needed to conclude that B is the husband of A, making it the correct answer among the options presented.
