Not too much to diagram, but easy to forget the various options.

I made frames out of the two possible placements on Saturday (P,L). Not a lot of inferences but I think it turned out to be a good idea since you're forced to do this anyway on Q 14 & 16

Hi, how do you know that the last slot has to be p or l?

Thanks

[robowarren]

Ah, wait. I figured it out - Because h,r,s,v are out. thanks!

No, I dont see or infer right away p/l having to be last.

Drawing the diagram via relative ordering way I got

P...S...V...R...H
L

So I lost focus on p/l because I was trying to combine more or less the letters via relative ordering. I actually had p as a cloud to go somewhere before s.
But I see my mistake.

I did not bring together PV, VP or PS,SP together and got lost in my diagram and did not notice my mistake of leaving these out.

What do you suggest I do so I dont make careless errors like this?

How would you know right away p/l go last before drawing a mistake like the one I did above?
Thanks

Hi,

I have a question regarding the fourth condition, which is "The sedan is serviced earlier in the week than the pickup or earlier in the week than the limousine, but not both."

Is that equal to "The sedan is serviced either earlier than pickup or earlier than limousine, but not both", which has only two scenarios, L-S-P and P-S-L?

When I initially did this condition, I thought it will be another scenario, both L and P are earlier than S, L----- S
P-----
Later, I figured it out through questions that this condition excludes that scenario.

So my question is that:
is "A or B, not both" equal to "either A or B, not both", which only has two scenarios, A and B?
What phrase describe a third scenario, -A and -B?
If the condition does not saying "not both", A and B can happen at the same time?


Thank you

Indeed!

L S P or P S L

is "A or B, not both" equal to "either A or B, not both", which only has two scenarios, A and B?

Yes.

What phrase describe a third scenario, -A and -B?

Neither A nor B.

If the condition does not saying "not both", A and B can happen at the same time?

Yes. If it just says "A or B," A and B can happen at the same time.
