Really?? How?
If mannequin 1 gets red tie, skirt, hat and Yellow jacket, it still gets only 2 colors...isn't it?
Because meanwhile, the mannequin 2 can get also the navy skirt, jacket and yellow hat...
Isn;t it right?

Mannequin 1: Red Tie, Red Jacket, Yellow skirt, yellow hat.
Mannequin 2: Navy skirt, yellow jacket, navy hat.
All yellow items are used.
No mannequin has all three colors.
Each mannequin's hat color is different from its jacket color.

Because it says all 3 yellow items are present, and mannequin #2 wears a navy skirt; there is only mannequin #1 to wear the yellow one. If it wears the yellow skirt, it cannot wear the red one.

Because Mannequin 1 is already wearing the red hat and the red tie and it can't be the red jacket because it has to wear a different color jacket than hat. I have no idea how I just figured that out but it makes perfect sense.

M1: Tie(red)
M2: Skirt(Navy)
All 3 yellow clothing (hat, skirt & jacket) must be included. No mannequin can wear all 3 color and hat/jacket must be diff color
one must wear yellow hat/skirt and the other yellow jacket
M1: must wear red & yellow
- red tie, yellow hat, yellow skirt, red jacket
M2: must wear navy & yellow
- navy skirt, yellow jacket, navy hat
none of the answer is correct.

"one red tie"
"4. Manneqin 1 wears the tie"
"each mannequin wheres one of the skirts"
"(c) mannequin 1 wears the red skirt" - it cannot be (c) if the first three are true.

Because the tie is Red.
So the skirt must be not red

properly, in case you define "two times as chilly" as "there'll purely be a million/2 as lots warmth", you should transform the temperature into an absolute temperature scale like the Kelvin scale after which divide the temperature with the help of two. 0° F = 255 ok, so "two times as chilly" could be 127.5 ok, or -230 °F. it rather is a complicated question, with the aid of fact the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are style of arbitrary. a hundred °F isn't "two times as warm" as 50 °F in any scientifically-significant sense of the word.
