Correct Answer: Only assumption I is valid
Solution : Given:
Statement
If people are intelligent, they should be creative.
Now, let's assess the assumptions:
I. Creativity and intelligence are related.
This assumption is supported by the statement. The statement implies that there is a relationship between intelligence and creativity. It suggests that if people are intelligent, they should also possess creativity, which indicates a connection between the two.
II. Creative people are intelligent.
This assumption is not explicitly supported by the statement. While the statement mentions that intelligent people should be creative, it doesn't necessarily mean that all creative people are intelligent. Creativity and intelligence may overlap, but one does not guarantee the other.
So, Assumption I is supported by the statement, but Assumption II is not necessarily true based on the given statement.
Hence, the second option is correct.
