Hey Rich, Thanks a lot, you nailed it on the head. I agree with you on the note taking, that's a better way to attack this questions And yes, most times, the questions are not the hardest but the main work is "sifting" through the information to get to the "core" of the question....

Using statement 1, I did not "bother" with the first part (X^2 + 1) because I know that if X is odd, then (X+5) must be even , which would make the target question always us an even number and is sufficient to answer the question.
Is that a Risky strategy or not to be used??
