Statement 1: w = max(20, z)him1985 wrote:For any integer x & y ,min(x,y) and max(x,y)denote the minimum & maximum of x & y respectively. For ex., Min(5,2)=2 and Max(5,2)=5. For the integer w , what is the value of min(10,w)?
1. w = max(20,z) for some integer z
2. w = max(10,w)
Statement 2 is OK but i am confused for statement AAnurag@Gurome wrote:Statement 1: w = max(20, z)him1985 wrote:For any integer x & y ,min(x,y) and max(x,y)denote the minimum & maximum of x & y respectively. For ex., Min(5,2)=2 and Max(5,2)=5. For the integer w , what is the value of min(10,w)?
1. w = max(20,z) for some integer z
2. w = max(10,w)
Hence, w ≥ 20 > 10
Hence, min(10, w) = 10
Sufficient
Statement 2: w = max(10, w)
max(10, w) is either equal to 10 or equal to w.
If max(10, w) = 10, then w = 10 ---> min(10, w) = min(10, 10) = 10
If max(10, w) = w, then 10 must be less than w --> min(10, w) = 10
Sufficient
The correct answer is D.
w = max(20, z) for any integer zhim1985 wrote:z can be any integer, may be greater than 20 or may be less than 20..
Also We cant infer from the statement that w is z(max), it may be 20 also if value of z is less than 20.
