Every branch in the West district opens on Saturday. At least one branch in the East district is closed on Saturday. No branch belongs to both districts. Ash is in the West district. Beech, Cedar and Elm are the only branches in the East district.

Read the passage, then judge the statement using only the information given.

Help

True is supported by the passage. False is contradicted by it. Choose Cannot say when both the statement and its opposite remain possible.

Each round has six questions and no time limit. Choosing an answer locks it. Review the steps, then move to the next question. Finish all six to save the round. Active time includes reviewing the steps, but does not count time when this page is hidden. Speed does not affect your score.

Use Tab and Enter or Space to choose an answer. The number keys also select answers, except when another control is focused. After an answer, Enter goes to the next question.
