Statement: All newly built residential complexes in the city are required to install solar panels, contributing to the city's goal of achieving 80% renewable energy usage by 2030.
Inference:
Inference I: The city will achieve its goal of 80% renewable energy usage by 2030.
Inference II: Existing residential complexes are exempt from the solar panel installation requirement.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Inference I: The city will achieve its goal of 80% renewable energy usage by 2030 → This is a goal, not a confirmed outcome.

Inference II: Existing residential complexes are exempt from the solar panel installation requirement.

The rule applies only to newly built complexes, so existing ones are exempt; hence, only inference II follows

Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
