Do you have any tips to offer in terms of improving my quantitative score? Hopefully, consistent, comprehensive practice under timed conditions will do it...and I think Kaplan 800 should help in terms of learning new strategies. Please let me know if you have any ideas! Thanks.

GMATPrep question

Any help on the following question would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. If x and y are integers and x > 0, is y > 0? (1) 7x - 2y > 0 (2) -y < x I think both statements are independently sufficient to answer the question, and so I believe the answer is D, but the answer is apparently E.
