Anna, Childress, Doyle, Elbert, Xavier, and York are students in a philosophy class. They must each reserve one of six individual tutoring sessions with the instructor. Each session begins when the prior sessions ends. Exactly one student attends each session, and no student attends more than one session. The following conditions apply:
Anna's session is later than Childress' session.
Elbert's session is either first or last.
York's session begins immediately after Xavier's session ends.
Either Childress or Anna must be scheduled for the third session.
Which of the following is an acceptable schedule of students to tutoring sessions from first to sixth?
(A)Elbert, Doyle, Childress, York, Xavier, Anna
(B)Doyle, Childress, Anna, Xavier, York, Elbert
(C)Elbert, Anna, Childress, Doyle, Xavier, York
(D)Xavier, York, Doyle, Childress, Anna, Elbert
(E)Doyle, Childress, Anna, Elbert, Xavier, York
For the first question in any games set, you can normally use each rule to eliminate one answer choice. Start with the first rule and determine which answer choice violates the rule. Then do the same for each subsequent rule. Choice (B) is the only answer choice we cannot eliminate, so it is the correct answer.
