don't worry i copied and pasted it:
A jeweler makes a single strand of beads by threading onto a string in a single direction from a clasp of series of solid-colored beads. Each bead is either green, orange purple, red or yellow. The resulting strand satisfies the following specifications:
If a purple bead is adjacent to a yellow bead, any bead that immediately follows and any bead that immediately precedes that pair must be red.
Any pair of beads adjacent to each other that are the same color as each other must be green.
no orange bead can be adjacent to any red bead.
Any portion of the strand containing eight consecutive beads must include at least one bead of each color.
1)If the strand has exactly eight beads, which one of the following is an acceptable order, strating from the clasp, for the eight beads?
A) green, red, purple, yellow, red, orange, green, purple
b) orange, yellow red, red, yellow, purple, red, green
c)purple, yellow, red, green, green, orange, yellow, orange
d)red, orange, red, yellow, purple, green, yellow, green
e)red, yellow, purple, red, green, red, green, green
2)If an orange bead is the fourth bead from the clasp, which one of the following is a pair that could be the second and third beads, respectively?
A) green, orange
b) breen red
C) purple, purple
d) yellow, green
e)yellow purple
15) If on an eight-bead strand the second, third, and fourth beads from the clasp are red, green, and yellow, respectively, and the sixth and seventh beads are purple and red, respectively, then which one of the following must be true?
a)the first bead is purple
b)the fifth bead is green
c)the fifth bead is orange
