If we CAN find a set of values that satisfies a statement AND yields values such that x > y² > z⁴, then we'll keep that statement.
Statement I. x > y > z
If x = 2, y = 1, and z = 0, then x > y² > z⁴
KEEP statement I
Statement II. z > y > x
If x = 1/4, y = 1/3, and z = 1/2, then x > y² > z⁴
KEEP statement II
Statement III. x > z > y
If x = 2, y = -1, and z = 0, then x > y² > z⁴
KEEP statement III
Answer: E
