Assuming there were no typing errors, this only appears to be a daunting question, yet is extremely straightforward.
Statement 1:
\(a>d\) and \(a>c\)
Just using this we cannot determine the exact relationship between \(c\) and \(d\).
Besides this has no connection with any information provided in the stem, so statament 1 seems fairly easy to rule out.
Statement 2:
\(b<c\) But what about \(d\)?
The stem has no additional information about \(b\), \(c\) or \(d\) either, so we've got no choice but to rule out statament 2 as insufficient to determine any relationship between \(c\) and \(d\).
Combining the two stataments
\(b<c\)
\(a>d\) and \(a>c\)
But there is no other information about \(a\), \(b\), \(c\) or \(d\) in the stem and as it stands we cannot derive anything even after combining the two stataments.
Hence, our answer is option E, cannot be determined even after combining both the statements.
