Question:
Omega may be formed from a combination
This answer may be derived directly from statement 4: Beta combines with Theta, giving Omega.
Question:
If Omega combines with Zeta, the outcome is
A. Alpha
B. Beta
C. Theta
D. Zeta
E. Can Not Be Determined
Question:
Beta may be involved in the combination if the outcome is
A. Alpha Or Theta
B. Alpha, Omega, Or Zeta
C. Beta
D. Beta, Theta Or Zeta
E. None Of The Above
Question:

II. Beta and Zeta combine to give Omega
III. Alpha and Beta combine to give Theta
A. I
B. II
C. III
D. I And II

From the chart we can see that only I is true: Zeta and Theta combine to give Beta.
Question:
If the outcome of Alpha and Beta combine with the outcome of Alpha and Zeta, the result is
A. Alpha
B. Beta
C. Omega
D. Theta
E. Zeta
The outcome of Alpha and Beta is Zeta. The outcome of Alpha and Zeta is Theta. Thus, if the two
outcomes (Zeta and Theta) combine, the result will then be Beta
Question:
If Omega combines with Theta, the outcome is Zeta or Theta. Then the outcome of a
combination of Omega and Theta is similar to the outcome of
Three division office managers, Fred, Al, and Cynthia draw office assistant each day from the clerical
and typing pools available to them. The clerical pool consists of Lyndia, Jim, Dennis, and Sylvia. The
typing pool consists of Edra, Gene, and Helen. The office assistants are selected according to the
following conditions:
Fred always needs at least one typist, but never more than two assistants.
Al always needs at least two assistants, but never more than three.
Sylvia or Gene and one other assistant always work for Cynthia.
Gene and Lyndia always work together.
Dennis and Edra will not work together
No more than two typists work for the same manager, but all three typists must work each day.
Question:
If Gene works for Fred and all of the assistants work, then which of the following must be
FALSE?
From the diagram and information above, if Gene works for Fred, then Lyndia also works for Fred, and
Sylvia must work for Cynthia. Since Dennis and Edra will not work together, one of them must work
for Cynthia; therefore Choice (A) must be false. Jim can not work for Cynthia.

I. They have a red haired mother
II. Their mother has green eyes
III. They are all girls
A. I
B. II
C. III
D. I And III
E. I,II And III
first, note that, if al the children have red hair, then all must be girls, since a boy would take both of
the father’s characteristics. Therefore, III is true. And the children would thus have to get their red
hair from their mother (I). Statement II is not necessarily true as their red haired mother could have
blue eyes.
