Q32:
If x3y4
= 5,000, is y = 5?
(1)
y is a positive integer.
(2)
x is an integer.
A. Statement (1) ALONE
is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient.
B. Statement (2) ALONE
is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient.
C. BOTH statements
TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is
sufficient.
D. EACH
statement ALONE is sufficient.
E. Statements (1)
and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.
what about x = 1/5000 and y = 5000?
(1) put y = 1, then x = cube root (5000)
put y = 2, then x = cube root(5000/16) and so on... --> Insuff
(2) put x = 1, y = 5000^1/4
put x = -1, y = - (5000^1/4)
put x = 3, y = (5000/8)^1/4 and so on... --> Insuff
1 & 2 - Together x and y can only be integers and y only positive - Suff
Hence, C
