PrepTest 121

Incorrect. Having an Explorer's head means that the other side can't be a Judge's head or another Explorer's head, but that doesn't mean it has to be a building. While all Judge's heads have trees on the other side, that doesn't mean all trees have Judge's heads on the other side, so that Explorer's head could be opposite a tree.

Incorrect. This answer is a reversal of the conditional that closes out the stimulus.

Incorrect. Similar to the reasoning in (A) and (B), Judge's heads are all matched with trees, but trees could be matched with other icons—including the Explorer's head.

Correct. Argument or Facts:
Facts

Question Type:
Must Be True

Stimulus Summary:
Coins from a country have 1 of 4 images on each side:
(1) Judge's head
(2) Explorer's head
(3) Building
(4) Tree
No coin has 2x Judge's head; 2x Explorer's head; 1x Judge's head 1x Explorer's headJudge's head → Tree on other side

Answer Anticipation:
It's hard to anticipate specifically what answer is going to show up, but it's going to rely on those last two rules—no double-headed coins; and all Judge's heads are opposite a tree. Let's head into the answers to see which one we can support based on this understanding.

Answer Explanation:
The stimulus establishes that every coin with a Judge's head has a tree on the other side. So if there's not a tree on the other side—if there's a building—then it can't have a Judge's head, as this answer choice states.

Key Takeaway:
If you're having trouble anticipating an answer in a Must Be True question, but you have a solid view of the stimulus, don't waste more time—head to the answers and work from there.

Incorrect. The Explorer's head can't have a head on the other side, but it isn't limited between the other icons, so it's possible that a building can be on the other side.
