Question 154 of DS practice section from the “Official” GMAT review book (2008 version): Stem: Is x negative? Data: a) x^3(1-x^2)<0 b) x^2-1<0 Based on a) -1<x<0 U x>1 Based on b) -1<x<1 Neither option is sufficient on their own; now, if we intersect both a) and b), the answer is -1<x<0. The “offici...
