Notable Valid Inferences

In most of a certain country, it’s either not humid or not cold. We’re looking for what must be false, so the correct answer should contradict this inference.

Half of the country is both humid and cold.

Must be false. We can infer that in most (over half) of the country, it’s either not humid or not cold. If half of the country is both humid and cold, that makes it impossible for over half to be not humid or not cold.

Most of the country is hot.

Could be true. As long as most of the country is not humid, this is consistent with the stimulus.

Some parts of the country are neither cold nor humid.

Could be true. We know most of the country is not cold or not humid. It’s possible some parts are neither cold nor humid.

It is not possible to raise cacti in the country.

Could be true. As long as in most of the country it’s easy to raise orange trees, it could be that cacti can’t be raised in the country.

Most parts of the country are humid.

Could be true. As long as most of the country is not cold, it’s possible most of the country is humid.
