Final answer:

The correct conclusion that follows in a single step from the given premises is J • ∼N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The argument consists of three premises:

  1. (J • ∼N) ∨ T
  2. ∼(J • ∼N)
  3. ∼T

We can use these premises to draw the conclusion by applying the disjunctive syllogism.

  1. J • ∼N

Therefore, the correct answer is option a. J • ∼N which follows in a single step from the given premises.
