1. Surveys reveal that the vast majority of hotel guests in the United States resent the high prices of the items in the mini-bars in their hotel rooms.These guests would prefer to have an empty refrigerator in their rooms in order to have space to put their own food and beverages, although a large percentage of these guests would still make at least one purchase from their in-room mini-bar. After analyzing the results of the study, the management of Hotel T decided that it would be more profitable to eliminate the mini-bar and install empty refrigerators in each room.

Which of the following, if true, would support Hotel T’s plan to increase profitability by eliminating in room minibars in favor of empty refrigerators?

A There is currently some space available in Hotel T’s in-room mini-bars for guests to put their own items.

B Hotel T is located in the United States.

C Some guests of Hotel T do not make any purchases from their in-room mini-bars.

D The money that Hotel T makes from the mini-bar purchases of its guests is less than the money that Hotel T loses from discarding mini-bar items that have not sold by their expiration dates.

E It will cost Hotel T less money to maintain empty refrigerators in its guest rooms than to maintain stocked minibars in those rooms.

2. There is only one major road, Freeway Z, that links County X and County Y. The border of the two counties is primarily defined by a mountain range, over which the construction of new roads is severely restricted by environmental laws. A cost-effective solution to the problem of traffic congestion on Freeway Z is to build a commuter train tunnel through the mountain range. The successful implementation of this plan would cost far less than expanding the existing freeway and would also reduce the number of cars clogging the roads in both counties.

Which of the following, if true, could proponents of the plan above most appropriately cite as a piece of evidence for the soundness of their plan?

A An effective commuter train tunnel between the counties would require major investment in mass transit within both counties.

B The majority of all vehicles on the nation’s freeways are traveling from one state to another.

C 60% of the cars on Freeway Z are driven by people who live in County Y and work in County X.

D Many new freeways are being built in areas that are presently served by commuter trains.

E A large proportion of the vehicles on Freeway Z are commercial trucks carrying transcontinental shipments.
