If a situation is "inconsistent," what does it imply about the relationship between the two things mentioned in the flashcards?

They must both be true
One must be true and the other false
Both cannot be true
Both are irrelevant

The correct answer is: Both cannot be true

When a situation is described as "inconsistent," it implies that both of the things mentioned cannot be true at the same time. This means that if one of the statements is true, then the other statement must be false. Option C correctly reflects this implication by stating that both cannot be true. Options A and D do not take into account the conflicting nature of the statements, while option B is not precise enough in capturing the idea that both statements cannot concurrently be true.
