Question 9
For questions 7-9
A professor is setting up advising meetings with her students John, Dan, Emily, Ashley, Ben, and Eli. She can meet with exactly one student per day at lunch, except Fridays, when she can meet with two students after school instead. The following conditions apply:
- Ashley's appointment is before Ben's but after Eli's
- The professor will meet with a male student on Wednesday
- John is one of the students who meets on Friday
- Dan cannot meet on Fridays
- Emily's appointment is after the student who meets on Wednesday
If Emily is NOT on Thursday, who could be?
Editorial note: Assume the intended Monday-Friday week, each student met once, and "before/after" means an earlier/later day. Following the intended name-based convention, John, Dan, Ben and Eli are male; Emily and Ashley are female. The source does not explicitly supply genders. Give both possible names.
