Hello TMians, Does anyone know how to reject schools politely? I'm really confused in how not to make the admission officer feel bad to me or leaving bad image to them. :whistle:

does anyone know how to write cover letter for my application?

thank you bbm833! 1. answer E i got it. 2. answer A i also answered D, but pp's answer is A. any idea?

1. T is no more than 20% greater than the integer x, and T is no smaller than a number 20% less than the integer x. If T = 60, which of the following indicates the smallest possible interval for x? a. 40 = c. 48 = d. 50 = e. 50 = 2. [x] represents the greates integer less than or equal to x and {x} represents the least integer greater than or equal to x. A. ([x] + {x}) / 2 B. 1.4

YES! the answer is A. 1/6 oow, thank you very much for the explanation.

From the even numbers between 1 and 9, two different numbers are to be chosen at random. What is the probability that their sum will be 8 ? a. 1/6 b. 3/16 c. 1/4 d. 1/3 e. 1/2 would someone kindly explain how to solve this problem?

1. if u use 12345, the answer would be 2,4,6,9 so try to use random number for example 13472 or else, then you'll got the number, 9. 2. bigduke, could you please explain it more detail? A) ? B) Combination of 7 to 3? 3. i know most of this type of questions is "D" (hmm, based on my experience) but this one, !!! geez, after i look the problem several times, and try to figure bigduke's answer, i found myself looking the problem in powerprep, guess what!? bugigio, you posted the problem incorrectly! bigduke, you posted the answer for the correct problem! the correct one should be 3 A) (3 + x) / 3 B) (5 + x) / x yeah, the denominator for B) should be "x", not "5" if the denominator is "5", the answer would definetely be A) cheers everbody

i know this problem, the one in 10th ed. right? while i was doing the problem, i answered B. But after i checked the answer key, guess what, it is C. could someone tell me why? maybe someone would be nice to draw it perhaps?

Oooh yes, i got it now! Thanks rashmi & bigduke for the answer!

could someone help me with these questions? it appeared in powerprep. 1. which of the following is both the mean and the median of 7 consevutive integers the least of which is x ? A. x + 4 B. x + 3 C. x + 2 D. (x + 28)/7 E. (x + 3)/2 2. Part of a $10,000 inheritance was invested at 4% and the remainder was invested at 6%. The total simple annual interest earned on the $10,000 at the end of one year was $520. Column A. The amount invested at 4% Column B. The amount invested at 6% 1. B 2. B No.1 I dont really know the exact meaning of the problem. could someone explain it in detail? No.2 I answered D firstly, because the question dont tell exactly hom many part was invested at 4% and 6%. So i concluded that it was impossible to choose which invested more. Different story if the problem stated ,for example, half of $10,000 invested at 4$ and the remainder at 6%, than i would choose B. Could someone check my "thinking"?

thank you very much for your quick and detailed reply bigduke! i really appreciate it. and i will post in lucid way from now on. anyway, speaking about quantitative test, i have done all questions in GRE 10th edition book. and my average score was about 740, well of course i try to get higher. my question is, do the actual test questions harder than those in the 10th ed. book or the same level with those in powerprep?

hi guys, i didnt understand the last question, what does it means? could you please explain it to me? how did u manage to choose 53? thanx in advance
