Word problem Help:

I think the answer is the first two, but I have gotten this wrong multiple times now, with a similar problem.

A job placement agency advertised that last year its clients, on average, had a starting salary of S39,500. Assuming that average refers to the mean, which of the following claims must be true based on this information? Note: More than one statement could be true. If none of the statements is true, mark the appropriate box. Last year some of their clients had a starting salary of exactly $39,500. Last year some of their clients had a starting salary of more than s35,000. Last year all of their clients had a starting salary of at least $39,500 Last year more than half of their clients had a starting salary of at least $39,500. Two years ago at least one of their clients had a starting salary of at least $39,500. None of the above statements is true.
