x>y^2>z^4 -> x is a positive no.

this means that x, y and z can be positive nos greater than 1 in that case x>y>z hence I could be true.x, y and z can be positive nos greater than 0 but less than x>z>y hence III could also be true and i think z>y>x is not possible (i am not sure about the last statement).

Three cases if treated seperate.

Lets say X=0.9, Y= 1/3, Z=1/2
Then statement I holds good

Statement II is good if
X=0.2, Y=1/3 and Z=1/2

Statement III is good if
X= 0.9, Y=1/3, Z=1/2

All statements are true if they are treated seperately.
