A man P speaks truth with probability p ...

A man P speaks truth with probability p and another man A speaks truth with probability 2p.
Statement-1 If P and Q contradict each other with probability `(1)/(2)`, then there are two values of p.
Statement-2 a quadratic equation with real coefficients has two real roots.

A

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true: Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1

B

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true: Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1

C

Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false

D
