The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given statements and conclusions logically. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Statements:** - Statement 1: "Some kings are queens." - This means there is at least one king who is also a queen. We can represent this with two overlapping circles: one for kings and one for queens. - Statement 2: "All queens are beautiful." - This means every individual in the queen circle is also in the beautiful circle. We can represent this by having the queen circle entirely within the beautiful circle. 2. **Analyzing Conclusion 1: "All kings are beautiful."** - For this conclusion to be true, every individual in the king circle must also be in the beautiful circle. - However, since we only know that "some kings are queens," it is possible that there are kings who are not queens. Therefore, we cannot conclude that all kings are beautiful. - **Conclusion 1 is false.** 3. **Analyzing Conclusion 2: "All queens are kings."** - For this conclusion to be true, every individual in the queen circle must also be in the king circle. - The statement "some kings are queens" does not imply that all queens are kings. There could be queens who are not kings. - **Conclusion 2 is also false.** 4. **Final Decision:** - Since both conclusions are false, we conclude that neither conclusion follows from the statements. ### Final Answer: Neither conclusion one nor conclusion two follows from the statements. ---
