24.

If the statements above are █████ █████ ███ ██ ███ █████████ ████ ████ ██ █████

a

Batchelder Avenue is █ ███████ ███████

Must be false. The stimulus tells us that if a street is one-way, then buses do not travel on it. A bus travels on Batchelder Avenue, so it cannot be a one-way street.

1%
b

Batchelder Avenue is ███ █ ███████ ███████

Must be true. If a street is one-way then a bus cannot travel on it. Bus nine travels on Batchelder Avenue, so it must not be a one-way street.

75%
c

Parking is allowed ██ ██████████ ███████

Could be false. Although we know that Batchelder Avenue does not have a bike lane and is not a one-way street, neither of these facts implies that Batchelder Avenue must allow parking. It's possible that parking is not allowed on Batchelder Avenue even though it does not have a dedicated bike lane and isn't a one-way street.

15%
d

Parking is not ███████ ██ ██████████ ███████

Could be false. Although we know that Batchelder Avenue does not have a bike lane and is not a one-way street, neither of these facts implies that parking is not allowed on Batchelder Avenue. It's possible that parking is allowed on Batchelder Avenue even though it does not have a dedicated bike lane and isn't a one-way street.

e

Parking is not ███████ ██ ███ ██████ ██ █████ █████ ██ ███ ███████

Could be false. Although we know that any street with a dedicated bike lane does not allow buses and does not allow parking, this doesn't imply that any street that buses don't travel on do not allow parking. There could be some streets that don't have buses, but do allow parking, as long as these streets don't have dedicated bike lanes.
