Fair-skinned people should wear extra sun protection at the beach. Sally is fair-skinned. Sally should wear extra sun protection at the beach.

Question 3

Since Cristina works between Max and Arthur, there is no way that Arthur could work beside Max. The office rows go in this order:
Max - Cristina - Arthur
Therefore, the answer is False.

Question 4

If the first two statements are true, is the third statement true?
The local dealership sells cars and trucks.

Question 6

Assume the first two statements are true. Is the final one True, False, or Uncertain?
Liz types faster than Bill. Alex types faster than Bill and Shauna, but slower than Liz. Shauna types faster than Liz.

Accepted Answer

The order of typing speed from fastest to slowest is the following:
Liz - Alex - Bill/Shauna 
or 
Liz - Alex - Shauna/Bill
We are not made aware of the difference in typing speeds between Shauna and Bill. In any case, with the statements provided, we are aware that Liz is the fastest typer of the four people, because Alex types slower than Liz, even though he types faster than Bill and Shauna. Therefore, it is impossible that either Bill or Shauna type faster than Liz, making the answer False.

Question 7

Assume the first two statements are true. Is the final one True, False, or Uncertain?
Each applicant to the Job Skills Program has submitted two letters of reference. Mary has applied to the Job Skills Program. Mary has submitted two letters of reference.

Accepted Answer

Since Mary is an applicant, and each applicant has submitted two letters of reference, we can logically deduce that Mary has submitted two letters of reference. The grammar tense in the first sentence assumes that the action has finished, which also makes the third statement (Mary has submitted two letters of reference), True.

Question 8

Assume the first two statements are true. Is the final one True, False, or Uncertain?
All successful applicants were notified of their acceptance by email. Edward was not notified by email. Edward was a successful applicant.

Accepted Answer

Since all successful applicants were notified of their acceptance by email, and Edward was not notified by email, it is impossible that he was a successful applicant. Therefore, the last sentence cannot be logically deduced and is False.

Tom plays piano.
Tom plays two instruments.
Tom plays piano and guitar.

Accepted Answer

Question 13

Assume the first two statements are true. Is the final one True, False, or Uncertain?
Isabel runs slower than Michelle. Jane runs slower than Michelle. Jane runs faster than Isabel.

Accepted Answer

Based on the information, we can determine that Michelle runs the fastest out of the three people. Both Isabel and Jane run slower than Michelle, but the information presented does not inform us regarding the running speeds of Isabel and Jane. So, it cannot be said for certain based on this information alone that Jane runs faster than Isabel. Therefore, the answer is Uncertain.

Question 14

Assume the first two statements are true. Is the final one True, False, or Uncertain?
All student-athletes at Grover High School must attend a safety workshop. Mark Sanchez is a student at Grover High School. Mark Sanchez must attend the safety workshop.

Accepted Answer

The second sentence does not state that Mark Sanchez is a student-athlete at Grover High School, but rather, just a student. With only the information given in the first sentence, it cannot be deduced that Mark Sanchez must attend the safety workshop for athletes, but it could be possible with further information.
The second statement does not have any information that disproves that third statement (An example of a statement that disproves the third statement would be: Mark Sanchez is not an athlete at Grover High School). Therefore, the answer is uncertain.

All passengers must go through a security clearance prior to boarding the plane. Jack was late arriving at the airport and missed his flight. Jack went through security clearance.

Accepted Answer

While Jack may have had the intention of being a passenger, he was late arriving at the airport and missed his flight. The sentences do not state nor give clues as to whether or not he went through the security clearance, nor do they state when Jack arrived, or by how much he missed his flight. Therefore, the answer is Uncertain.
