The question is based on the information provided below:
From a group of seven people – $\text{J, K, L, M, N, P}$ and $\text{Q}$ – exactly four will be selected to attend a diplomat’s retirement dinner. Selection must conform the following conditions:
- Either $\text{J}$ or $\text{K}$ must be selected, but $\text{J}$ and $\text{K}$ cannot both be selected
- Either $\text{N}$ or $\text{P}$ must be selected, but $\text{N}$ and $\text{P}$ cannot both be selected
- $\text{N}$ cannot be selected unless $\text{L}$ is selected
- $\text{Q}$ cannot be selected unless $\text{K}$ is selected
If $\text{P}$ is not selected to attend the retirement dinner, then exactly how many different groups of four are there each of which would be an acceptable selection?
- one
