Let's walk through the logic of the question step by step.
1. Conditional Check: The code checks whether the sum of 4 and 5 equals 10.
- [tex]\( 4 + 5 = 9 \)[/tex], so the condition [tex]\( 4 + 5 == 10 \)[/tex] is false.
2. Evaluate the Conditional Statement: Since the condition is false, the code under the `else` block will be executed.
- The code under the `else` block prints "FALSE".
3. Independent Print Statement: Following the conditional block, there is another print statement outside of the `if-else` block.
- This print statement prints "TRUE" regardless of the condition.
4. Combine the Outputs: Now, we combine the results from step 2 and step 3.
- First, "FALSE" is printed because the condition was false.
- Then, "TRUE" is printed from the independent print statement.
So, combining these printed outputs, the final result is `FALSETRUE`.
Thus, the code prints: FALSETRUE.
