A rowing team uses a boat with exactly six seats arranged in single file and numbered sequentially 1 through 6, from the front of the boat to the back. Six athletes�Lee, Miller, Ovitz, Singh, Valerio, and Zita�each row at exactly one of the seats. The following restrictions must apply:
Miller rows closer to the front than Singh.
Singh rows closer to the front than both Lee and Valerio.
Valerio and Zita each row closer to the front than Ovitz.
Suppose the restriction that Miller rows closer to the front than Singh is replaced by the restriction that Singh rows closer to the front than Miller. If the other two restrictions remain in effect, then each of the following could be an accurate matching of athletes to seats EXCEPT:
Singh: seat 1; Zita: seat 2; Miller: seat 6
Singh: seat 1; Valerio: seat 3; Ovitz: seat 5
Singh: seat 3; Lee: seat 4; Valerio: seat 5
Valerio: seat 3; Miller: seat 4; Lee: seat 5
Valerio: seat 4; Miller: seat 5; Ovitz: seat 6
