Question

In each question below is given a statement/passage followed by two conclusions numbered I and
II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement. Statement: To reduce air pollution in metropolitan cities, the government has introduced a new policy encouraging people to use public transport by offering subsidized monthly travel passes. Assumptions:
I. High usage of private vehicles contributes significantly to air pollution.
II. Reduced travel costs may motivate people to switch from private vehicles to public transport.

Q: Answer-In each question below is given a statement/passage followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Y...

The statement mentions subsidized public transport passes as a way to reduce air pollution. For this to work, the policy assumes that private vehicles are a major source of pollution supporting Assumption I. It also assumes that subsidies can influence peoples transport choices, aligning with Assumption II. Hence, both assumptions are implicit.
