  2. can you please explain how you get the common area
  3. I made a tiny (but careless) mistake :=> 0.89C + 1.7T = 1.01C + 1.01T thanks guys
  4. There are 5 numbers in set X, which mean is greater than its median. There are 7 numbers in the set Y, which mean is greater than its median also. If Z consists of X and Y, which have no common numbers, is mean of Z greater than its median? 1) Mean of X is less than mean of Y 2) Median of X is less than median of Y I was able to find the answer but my approach (plugging numbers) took considerable time. Has anyone got quicker approach to such problems. ? Also, in terms of difficulty level where would you guys put such problem?
  5. A certain company that sells only cars and trucks reported that revenues from car sales in 1997 were down 11 percent from 1996 and revenues from truck sales in 1997 were up 7 percent from 1996.

  9. There are 2 car-renting companies X and Y. The cost for renting a car from X is: 30+0.2*(m-100). Where 30 is the base cost for each day and m is the total miles of each day. The cost for renting a car from Y is $65 for each day. Someone will rent a car for 3 days. If he run equal miles in each of the 3 days, he must run how long in the 3 days so that he will pay the same cost no matter he rent the car from X or Y?No OA given

  19. musical sacle has 13 notes each hainvg a different frequency. In scale notes are ordered by increasing frequency and highest note is twice the lowest. For each 12 lower frequencies the raio of freuency to next higher is fixed constant. If lower frequency = 440 then frequency of 7th note in scale is? 1) 440 Sqr(2) 2) 440 Sqr(2^7) 3) 440 Sqr(2^12) Please try to explain using Airthmatic series formula 1: sum of n terms = n/2 * (FT+LT) formula2: sum of n terms = n/2 * [ 2a + (n-1) d] find d from formula 2. and then use a+(n-1)d to find 7th term
  20. That it is good way..... As long as u end every para with "Consequently the point I favour is correct"
  21. Thanks, In my view role of first paragraph is to state that I understand both sides of the topic before stating what side I am "favour ... refute..." I shall work to iron out issues. I have only few days left now I better rush to solve problems.
