Would some one be able to diagram the answer out on a linear set?

If it can not be diagrammed, which variables (out of RTVZ since L/ M can't and S & O can) would be able to be second?

Hi Kenyambo,

You wouldn't diagram this with a linear set up---you'd use the sequence from the main post on this game. The linear diagram here would just be a slower way of writing out the sequencing info you already would have done.

Starting on the far left, either S or T could be first, and then either of the two of them could be second (it could be ST or TS). Additionally, the two variables that follow S and T, but have no other variables before them, could also be second. That's M and O. The first to then could be
ST
TS
SO
TM

Those are four different variables that could be second, giving us answer choice (B) as in boy.

Remember, M could be second because the only required flower before M is T. T could be first, and M could be second.

Hope that helps!
