以下是引用findjuhl在2006-10-4 13:40:00的发言:0. If x is a prime number, is 3xy an even number?
(1) x>2
(2) y is odd
Answer: C ( from 1, x = 3, 5, 7,11..but we do not know bout y and from stmt 2, y = 1, 3,5,7,9..but we do not know bout x)
由条件(1)x>2,有x一定为odd, 3x odd, 条件(2)y is odd, 有3xy为odd, 非even, 选C
1. Is X>Y?
1). (X-Y)/X>0
2). (X^2-Y^2)/X^2>0
由条件(1)有: x-y与x同号, 结论:x可大于y,也可小于y
由条件(2)有: x^2-y^2>0, 即(x-y)与(x+y)同号, 结论:x可大于y, 也可小于y
选E

2. As the figure above shows, AB=BC=8, CD=2, angle B and angle C are right angle, and
AE=ED=13. What is the area of the ABCDE?
s=100
3. A plane traveled k miles in the first 96 minutes of flight time. If it completed the remaining 300 miles of the trip in t minutes, what was its average speed, in mils per hour, for the entire trip?
s=k+300 (miles)
t=96+t (minutes)=(96+t)/60 hours
v=s/t=(k+300)*60/96+t
怎么条件给的这么搞,一会用字母,一会用数字?
4. Is the positive integer x an even number?
1). If x is divided by 3, the remainder is 2
2). If x is divided by 5, the remainder is 5
5. What is the tens digit of positive integer x?
1). X divided by 100 has a remainder of 30
2). X divided by 100 has a remainder of 30
两个条件一样?
由此条件有:x=100t+30, 十位数为3
6. In the xy-plane, are the points (r,s) and (u,v) equidistance from the origin?
1). r+s=1
2). u=1-r and v=1-s
若要两点到原点距离相等,则需有r^2+s^2=u^2+v^2,2个条件联立有此式,选C
7. Working independently, Tina can do a certain job in 12 hours. Working independently, Ann can do the same job in 9 hours. If Tina works independently at the job for 8 hours and then Ann works independently, how many hours will it take Ann to complete the remainder of the job?
tina做8小时,相当于完成了总工作量的2/3,剩下的1/3由ann完成,ann完成总工作9小时,完成1/3需3小时
8. If m and n are positive integers, is m/n a terminal decimal?
1). 90<m<100
2). n=4
91到99,我想了一下,除4好像都能除尽,不会有循环小数,应该选C吧,还有哪位NN有更好的算法吗?
9. Mary has 11 more nickels than quarters. How many coins does she have if the total value of her coins is $2.65?
nickel是5美分吧,quarter是啥啊?和美元咋换算?
10. A and B are in a line to purchase tickets. How many people are in the line?
1). There are 15 people behind A and 15 people in front of B
2). There are 5 people between A and B
分A前B后和A后B前两种情况考虑,总人数不能确定,选E
