Every pair appears exactly once

Consider the following design where the columns represent blocks and the letters represent treatments — block 1: A, B, E; block 2: C, D, E; block 3: A, C, F; block 4: B, D, F; block 5: A, D, G; block 6: B, C, G; block 7: E, F, G. Then, which of the following statements are true?

  1. A.The design is a balanced incomplete block design.✓ Correct
  2. B.The design is not connected.
  3. C.The design is binary.✓ Correct
  4. D.The design is symmetric.✓ Correct
