2 Linear Equations, 2 Variables, 1 Solution We learned back in 9th Grade that if you have 2 linear equations with 2 variables, there will always be one unique solution. For Data Sufficiency questions, we can seek out these equations in the stimulus and statements and (without calculating) know if we have enough information. For example, If the mileage on car X is currently exactly 3 times the mileage on car Y, what is the mileage on car X? (1) When each car had 6,000 miles less than they...

D. x/10 loss E. 2x/5 loss D. x/10 loss To solve: Profit = Revenue - Cost A population of 10 ants grew by a certain factor x each day. What is the value of x? 1. Had the factor been halved, the ants would have grown to a population of 320 in 5 days. 2. The average population growth for the first 5 days was 2,046 ants per day. D. Each statement alone is sufficient A certain store sells milk for x dollars per gallon. If the store purchases the milk for y dollars per gallon, how much per g...

P(E) = 1 - P(not E) 3rd Rule of Probability: Conditional Probability Conditional Probability: The probability of event A AND event B occurring is the probability of event A times the probability of event B, given that A has already occurred. P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B|A) 4th Rule of Probability: Probability of A OR B The probability of event A OR event B occurring is: the probability of event A occurring plus the probability of event B occurring minus the probability of both events occurr...

Round Trip D1 = D2... write out rates equations for both legs of the trip (one will have T and one will have T-X... if there is a stop for lunch and gone for 8 hours, that means only drive for 7 total).... Set equations equal to each other and solve for T! (X / 25) + (x/10) = what percent of X? Find a common denominator and get into one fraction. Xs cancel and the fraction is your answer Takes 1st person c hours to do a job and 2 people together d hours to do the same job. How long will ...
