63 Game 3

This is probably a silly question, but I think I struggled with the question the first time because I interpreted "pickup and sedan are serviced on consecutive days" as, for example Thursday is the Pickup and Friday is Sedan. If it says consecutively, it doesn't mean in the same order it's written (Pickup one day and Sedan the later day), it means just has to be on days next to each other. Is this correct?
That's correct!
The test writers use very precise language—had they intended that Pickups must be the day before Sedans, they would've written just that.
So, as you work through the test, you can be sure that what's on the page contains precisely the meaning intended.
Keep up the good work!

So, an incorrect usage.
BUT STILL FUN TO SAY.
For #14 you say it can't be "PV" so you put "SP". But the rules regarding P V and S didn't specify order it just said "consecutive". So for #14 that space before P could've technically been V cause then we would've still had P and V in consecutive days even though V would've been before P. Am i missing something?
Why does S have to be between L & P? I interpreted the rule as S-P OR S-L. In rule #3, it says that P & S are next to each other, but doesn't give a direction.
Thanks!
In your version of Rule 4, you've left out the last part of the rule: "...but not both." You must symbolize the entire rule in order to be correct and effective.
Is there any specific reason as to why you did not create a tree before proceeding to the questions? Could it be that the variation within certain rules makes it more difficult to create a set tree, and it was just easier to determine which cannot be last and go from there?
Yes; the rule tree is only a combination of the existing rules. Here, there aren't any rules that we can combine, so I couldn't!
