Tim is the director of a brand new recreation center in his city. His entire family plays various sports but as of now, his main priority is to make his children—Ed, Lisa and Judy—happy. His wife (Anna) is also taking a Golf class and needs to use the field this week as well. Here are the clues;
1)The field is available only on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.
2)Lisa wants to watch the baseball game, but she’s in the school play and has rehearsal after school on Tuesday and Thursday.
3)Lisa and Judy have no interest in seeing each other play.
4)One daughter wants her ultimate-Frisbee event to precede the soccer game and the golf class because soccer players and golfers tear up the field.
5)Ed is going to visit colleges on the weekend and wants to get an early start immediately after school on Friday.
*Match up each family member (excluding Tim) with what sport they play and on what day of the week. By the way, use matrices to solve this brain teaser and be sure to show your work. Enjoy!
