5. H and W never met.

how can we find the answer from this, please explain in detail

Answer 1

1 police
2 witness
3 murderer and victim
4 hangman
5 judge and victim

common sense

Answer 2

The first statement is:

1)M knew both Murderer and the Victim.
You can positively conclude that M is neither the Murderer or the Victim so put an "X" under the "M" column for the "Murderer" and "Victim" square.

2) Judge asked C to Describe the Murder incident.
This would mean that C is the witness. You can put an "X" in all other spots for the witness and also all the other spots for column "C"

3) W was Last to see F alive.
From this we know that F is the victim and W is the murderer.

Skip # 4 for now.

5) H and W have never met.
W (Murderer) would meet everyone else at some time prior to his hanging, either at the crime scene or at the questioning and trial. The only person he would not meet would be the Hangman. H has to be the Hangman.

Now back to 4.

4) police Found G at the Murder site.
Police can not be G so the only other person left to be G is the Judge.

Answers:

W = Murderer
H = Hangman
M = Police
C = Witness
G = Judge
F = Victim

Answer 3

The easiest way is to visualize w/ a simple grid. Line WHMCGF on the top, and mvjpwh on the side. You just mark a X where you know something cannot be, and a O where you know something is true. Then go through the clues a couple times and you'll get
1) if M knew m & v, he can't be m or v. (mark x's there)
2) j cant be C because he asked the question.
3) presumably F is the victim if W was the last to see him alive (mark a O there & x out other possiblities since they arent possible any more)
4) if H & W never met, then presumably they can't be murderer & victim.
5) the police found G, so G isn't the police
6)if W was last to see F alive then i suppose that makes him the witness
7) witness would have to meet the poice, judge & W&H never met.
8)then use process of elimination on the grid and the rest falls into place easily

Answer 4

set yourself up a grid, along one side run the people, along the other edge the positions (murderer, judge, etc)

person | Murderer | victim | judge | police | witness
W____|_________|______|______|______|______
H____|_________|______|______|______|______
M____|_________|______|______|______|_______
C____|_________|______|______|______|______
G____|_________|______|______|______|______
F____|_________|______|______|______|_______

read the clues.
1 refers to m. put an x in his line under the positions he CAN'T be
2 refers to C. do the same
3 says f died. only two of the positions died, so x out all the others
4 refers to g as meeting the poilce officer, so he cant be one
5 think about how things happen. the murderer would meet everyone but the wittness. the victim would meet only the murderer and the witness. judge wouldn't meet the victim or the hangman. cop wouldn't meet the victim or the hangman. witness wouldn't meet the hangman.

the rest is just elimination and going through the clues a few times. if there's only one open spot in a column or row, that's a check and a correct match. a check causes an x out through its entire row and column.

Answer 5

i'd enable them to triumph over the murderer until eventually at last they have been provide thoroughly out without punishment in any respect because of the fact the murderer is gonna get 3 hots and a cot for something of his existence. And we are gonna pay for all of his medical costs besides and feed the sorry S.O.B. permit me be the choose for a jointly as. i'm going to scrub out each and all the prisions and deliver them on the front lines in Iraq, in the event that they make it they could be set loose whilst they got here decrease back. If no longer a minimum of they did one factor solid for the rustic by protecting =)

Answer 6

from
1. m: witness or judge or police
2. c: murderer or witness or police
3. clearly f: victim
w: murderer or witness
4. g: murderer or witness
5. h & w : hangman & witness or vice versa
from 3. & 5.
we have w: witness
threfore h: hangman & g: murderer
therefore c: police
m: judge
