    D Either 'a' or 'c' Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    I: 'It Shatters My' is coded as 'cvg, tgh, vgn' II: 'My death Heart' is coded as 'zdf, wxc, cvg' III: 'It Heart Slow' is coded as 'vgn, wxc, ujk' From statement I and II, we conclude that 'My' is coded as 'cvg'. From statement I and III, we conclude that 'It' is coded as 'vgn'. From statement II and III, we conclude that 'Heart' is coded as 'wxc'. From statement I, we conclude that 'Shatters' is coded as 'tgh'. From statement II only, we conclude that 'death' is coded as 'zdf'. From statement III only, we conclude that 'Slow' is coded as 'ujk' So, the code for 'Slow' is 'ujk'.
