Assertion (A): log 2 = a and log 3 = b
⇒ 1 + log 12 = 2a + b
Reason (R): 1 + log 12
= 1 + log 2 x 2 x 3
= 1 + 2log 2 + log 3
= 1 + 2a + b
A is true, but R is false.
A is false, but R is true.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct reason for A.

Answer
Given, log 2 = a and log 3 = b
⇒ 1 + log 12
⇒ 1 + log (4 x 3)
⇒ 1 + log (2 x 2 x 3)
⇒ 1 + log 4 + log 3
⇒ 1 + log 22 + log 3
= 1 + 2log 2 + log 3
= 1 + 2a + b.
∴ A is false, but R is true.
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
