The explanation for the answer deals with color theory and the mixing of colors:
In option 1, the mixture of magenta and yellow produces red. This is because magenta contains both red and blue color, while yellow contains both red and green color. When combined, the red stays while the blue and green cancel each other out, this leaves only red at the intersection.
In option 2, the mixture of cyan and magenta produces blue. Cyan is a mixture of green and blue color, while magenta is a mixture of red and blue color. When these are combined, the blue color stays while the red and green cancel out each other resulting in blue color at the intersection.
Option 3 is correct because both statement 1 and statement 2 are accurate representations of subtractive color theory, where colors are mixed to create different hues. Option 4 is incorrect because it suggests neither color combinations occur, which according to the description above is not the case.
