Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement "Hertz runs a sale or both Avis buys new cars and Budget lowers rates" can be translated as "Hertz runs a sale or (Avis buys new cars and Budget lowers rates)." This is equivalent to choice B, which correctly uses parentheses to group A and B together as a combined event. The logical operator used is AND (•) because both events have to occur, so it is not choice A, C, D or E.
