Let p: a number is greater than 25. let q: a number is less than 35. if p ∧ q is true, then what could the number be? check all that apply. 24 28 32 36 40

The correct options are:

                               28 , 32

We are given a conditional statement p as:

              p: A number is greater than 25.

This is the collection of all the real numbers which are greater than 25.

i.e. the set p is given by:

         p=  (25,∞)

Similarly,

The conditional statement q is given by:

                   q: A number is less than 35.

This is the collection of all the real numbers which are less than 35.

i.e. the set q is given by:

         p=  (-∞,35)

Now we are asked to find:

                        p∧q which is the intersection if the elements of the two set.

Hence,

p∧q=  (25,35)

is the collection of elements which are greater than 25 and less than 35.

1)

              24

as we see that  24∉ (25,35)

Hence, option: 1 is incorrect.

2)

                 28

as we see that:   28∈ (25,35)

Hence, option: 2 is correct.

3)  

                       32

Similarly  32 ∈ (25,35)

Hence, option: 3 is correct.

4)

                    36

Here   36 ∉ (25,35)

Hence,   option: 4 is incorrect.

5)

                   40

Again   40 ∉ (25,35)

Hence, option: 5 is correct.
