A is true but R is false.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Assertion A is true because higher distribution pressure will cause more water to be used. This is because higher pressure will make it easier for water to flow through pipes and fixtures, and people will be more likely to leave faucets running for longer periods of time.<\/p>\n<p>Reason R is false because higher distribution pressure does not necessarily cause more loss and waste of water.
