Logic Problem Solution:
The Barn Dance
By clue 1, Bebe didn't do the Tennessee Waltz or the Electric Slide
5th. By clue 2, Bebe also didn't do the Texas Two-Step with her 5th
partner. Therefore, Bebe did either the Bandstand Stroll or the
Pennsylvania Polka as her 5th dance. The dance Bebe had with Romeo
wasn't the Pennsylvania Polka (5) or the American Bandstand Stroll (8),
so Romeo wasn't Bebe's 5th partner. By clue 2, then, Bebe danced with
Romeo either 3rd or 4th. If Romeo had been Bebe's 4th partner, then
she would have danced the Texas Two-Step 3rd and with the horse 2nd
(2). By clue 7, the dance Bebe danced with the dog wasn't the Texas
Two-Step. By clue 4, then, Bebe would have danced with Walter 3rd,
and Romeo would be the dog. All five dance partners are named in clue
1. If Bebe had danced the Texas Two-Step with Walter 3rd, Walter
would be the rooster in clue 1--no (4). So, Bebe danced with Romeo
3rd, did the Texas Two-Step 2nd, and danced with the horse 1st (2).
By clue 4, Bebe danced with Walter immediately before dancing with the
dog. Since Bebe didn't dance the Texas Two-Step with the dog (7),
Bebe danced with Walter either 2nd or 4th. If she had danced the
Texas Two-Step with Walter as her 2nd dance, Walter would be the
rooster in clue 1--again, no (4). Therefore, Bebe danced with Walter
4th and the dog 5th. Hector isn't the dog (1), nor is Billy (7);
Morris is the dog. Since Bebe's dance with Morris wasn't the American
Bandstand Stroll (3), she danced the Pennsylvania Polka with him.
Romeo didn't do the Bandstand Stroll (8) and therefore did either the
Tennessee Waltz or Electric Slide with Bebe. Romeo then isn't the
rooster in clue 1, nor is Walter the rooster (4). The rooster did the
Texas Two-Step with Bebe. Hector must then be the horse (1) and Billy
the rooster. Romeo is the sheep (5) and Walter the goat. Romeo did
the Tennessee Waltz with Bebe (6). Bebe did the American Bandstand
Stroll with Hector and the Electric slide with Walter (1). Bebe danced
the five dances at the Barn Dance in order:
- 1st - American Bandstand Stroll with Hector the horse
- 2nd - Texas Two-Step with Billy the rooster
- 3rd - Tennessee Waltz with Romeo the sheep
- 4th - Electric Slide with Walter the goat
- 5th - Pennsylvania Polka with Morris the dog
