Question 187.

Directions: Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions:

A company launches eight products - Q, R, S, T, V, W, Y and Z - in one of the four metros of India. The products were launched one after the other over a period of six months in 2006. The order in which the products were launched is consistent with the following conditions:
v is launched before both Y and Q.
Q gets launched after Z.
T gets launched before V but after R.
S gets launched after V.
R gets launched before W.


[X.A.T. 2007]
Which one of the following could be true?
  1.    Y is the second product to be launched.
  2.    R is the third product to be launched.
  3.    Q is the fourth product to be launched.
  4.    S is the fifth product to be launched.
  5.    V is the sixth product to be launched.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> S is the fifth product to be launched.
Answer: (d)
(a) does not hold since Y must have V, R, and T before it.
(b) does not hold as R must have each one of Q, S, T, V, W, and Y after it.
(c) does not hold as Q must have each one of V, R, T, and Z before it. If S is the fifth product to be launched, then we have the sequence R, W, T, V, S, Y, Z, Q which satisfies all the above conditions.
So, (d) holds. (e) cannot hold as V must have each one of Q, S, and Y after it.
Question 188.

Directions: Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions:

A company launches eight products - Q, R, S, T, V, W, Y and Z - in one of the four metros of India. The products were launched one after the other over a period of six months in 2006. The order in which the products were launched is consistent with the following conditions:
v is launched before both Y and Q.
Q gets launched after Z.
T gets launched before V but after R.
S gets launched after V.
R gets launched before W.


[X.A.T. 2007]
If Z is the seventh product to be launched, then which one of the following could be true?
  1.    W is the fifth product to be launched.
  2.    T is the fourth product to be launched.
  3.    R is the second product to be launched.
  4.    V is the sixth product to be launched.
  5.    Y is the eighth product to be launched.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> W is the fifth product to be launched.
Answer: (a)
If Z is the seventh product, then Q has to be launched in eighth place and so (e) does not hold. Clearly, V has to have each one of Y, Q, S, and the Z at the seventh place after it. So, (d) does not hold. R can have the only Z before it.
But Z is at the seventh place. So, R shall be first. Thus (c) does not hold. T must have each one of V, S, Y, Q, and Z after it. So, (b) does not hold. If Z is the seventh product, we may have the sequence R, T, V, S, W, Y, Z, Q, which satisfies all conditions.
Hence, (a) holds.
Question 189.

Directions: Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions:

A company launches eight products - Q, R, S, T, V, W, Y and Z - in one of the four metros of India. The products were launched one after the other over a period of six months in 2006. The order in which the products were launched is consistent with the following conditions:
v is launched before both Y and Q.
Q gets launched after Z.
T gets launched before V but after R.
S gets launched after V.
R gets launched before W.


[X.A.T. 2007]
If Q is the fifth product to be launched, then each of the following could be true except.
  1.    Z is the first product to be launched.
  2.    T is the second product to be launched.
  3.    V is the third product to be launched.
  4.    W is the fourth product to be launched.
  5.    Y is the sixth product to be launched.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> W is the fourth product to be launched.
Answer: (d)
Q must have V and Z before it and V must have R and T before it. Thus, if Q is the fifth product, we shall have V, Z, R, and T at the four places before it.
Clearly, W cannot be in fourth place.
Question 190.

Directions: Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions:

A company launches eight products - Q, R, S, T, V, W, Y and Z - in one of the four metros of India. The products were launched one after the other over a period of six months in 2006. The order in which the products were launched is consistent with the following conditions:
v is launched before both Y and Q.
Q gets launched after Z.
T gets launched before V but after R.
S gets launched after V.
R gets launched before W.

  1.    S gets launched sometime before T.
  2.    T gets launched sometime before W.
  3.    W gets launched sometime before V.
  4.    Y gets launched sometime before Q.
  5.    Z gets launched sometime before W.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option E. -> Z gets launched sometime before W.
Answer: (e)
Clearly, R must be launched before each one of T, V, S, W, Y, and Q.
So, the only Z can be launched before R if R is in second place. Thus, Z gets launched before W.
