Alright moving on to question twenty two here.
0:08
If center three recycles glass then which one of the following kinds of material
0:12
must center 2 recycle?
0:16
Taking a looke here drawing out a quick hypothetical where we have center 3 recycling glass. Again we
0:21
know that glass and plastic can't be together which tells us that plastic
0:25
must be in 1 because we already know it can't be in 2 because it would also place
0:29
it
0:29
in 1 which would violate the 3rd condition that there's only one plastic. So now looking at center 2 we know
0:37
we can only have maximum two center 2 now because we've already placed plastic in
0:45
center 1 which means that the two that we place in center 2 are also going to join
0:50
center 1 and maximum three so we can't have more than two in center 2. Again we
0:55
know that plastic can't be present and we also know that glass can't present because
1:00
if glass was present too it would put it in 1 based on condition two which
1:05
would violate condition three that plastic and glass can't go together. So the only
1:09
possibilities left for center 2 are N, T & W. Again we know from question 21 the only
1:15
possibilities are either W and N or N and T. So regardless we're gonna
1:22
have N and one of T or W. So what material must center 2 recycle? Well (B)
1:30
newsprint would be the correct answer.
