  10. From the unknown Is \quad x^2 = xy 1. \quad x^2 - y^2 = (x+5)(y-5) 2. \quad x=y

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:31:09 -0000

    Hi,

    How can statement 1 help us to decide yes or no? We can consider two cases in which we get contradictory results. So statement 1 is not sufficient

  11. From the unknown If n^3+100 is exactly divisible by n+10, where n is a positive integer, find the maximum value of n

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:25:16 -0000

    We have n3 + 10 = (n + 10)(n2 – 10n +100) – 990

    Thus n^3 + 10 will be divisible by n + 10 if 990 is divisible by n + 10

    Hence the maximum value of n+10 is 990 and thus the maximum value of n is 980

  12. From the trivia question The number of real roots of the equation 'x^4+(x^4+20)^1/2=22' is

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:19:17 -0000

    Given equation is

    x^4 + \sqrt{x^4 + 20}=22

    \text{Let } \sqrt{x^4 + 20} = p

    \Rightarrow x^4 = p^2 - 20

    Now the given equation becomes

    p^2 - 20 + p = 22

    p^2 + p - 42 = 0

    (p+7)(p-6)=0

    From here we can conclude that p can take 2 values and hence the given equation will have two real roots
  13. From the trivia question If any form represented as (Z=X^Y) then Z is always a composite number.[X doesn't belongs to 0 & 1]

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:10:52 -0000

    You can take X any prime number, say 3 and Y = 1.

    Then we have Z = 3^1 which is a prime number.

  14. From the question IIFT

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:07:30 -0000

    Hi, If you purchase the material offered by institutes like TIME, CL, IMS etc; the GK material is also included in this package and this should be sufficient. Besides this, internet is the best source for GK. Get to know the topics covered in the GK of IIFT and look for the same in the internet.

  17. From the trivia question Which TOEFL format is no longer available to test in?

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 11:00:57 -0000

    CBT stands for Computer Based Test. This format is no longer offered and instead iBT (internet Based Test) is administered. The countries where iBT is not possible, Paper Based Test (PBT) is administered.

  18. From the unknown The following test incorporates a mixture of sentence correction and critical reasoning type questions which you will encounter on the actual GMAT examination.

    When coming across Sentence Correction you will find part or all of the sentence underlined. The answer options given will rephrase those sections. Pick A if you think it is fine in it's original state, otherwise chose from the other 4 options.

    In Critical Reasoning all you must do is pick the most correct answer from the options presented.

    Thu, 20 Aug 2009 10:56:35 -0000

    That’s a typo with the answer.

    Each statement alone is not sufficient

    Both statements together will be sufficient to answer this.
