Question

Chansa is as tall as mercy, Maureen is taller than mercy but not joseph.lilian is shorter than chansa.which of the following statements is true?

Answer 1

Let's break down the information provided:

1. Chansa is as tall as Mercy: C = M
2. Maureen is taller than Mercy but not taller than Joseph: M < M (Maureen) ≤ J (Joseph)
3. Lilian is shorter than Chansa: L < C

From these statements, we can deduce the following:

- Since Chansa is as tall as Mercy (C = M), and Maureen is taller than Mercy (M < M), we have:
- C = M < Maureen
- Since Maureen is not taller than Joseph, we can conclude:
- Joseph ≥ Maureen > Mercy = Chansa
- Lilian is shorter than Chansa:
- L < C

In summary, we can establish an order of height:
- L < C = M < M (Maureen) ≤ J (Joseph)

Given this hierarchy, we can summarize it as follows:
- Lilian is the shortest.
- Then Chansa and Mercy are of equal height.
- Maureen is taller than both Chansa and Mercy.
- Joseph is at least as tall as Maureen.

To answer the question regarding which statement is true requires knowing the specific statements to evaluate. However, the conclusions we've drawn can help clarify the relationships among the individuals' heights.

If you can provide a specific set of statements or options, I can help identify which one is true based on this analysis.
