Hi,

Question stem says 588 college teachers (1400 * 0.42) considered engaging in Res an essential goal.

Statement 1:

Let w be the number of women teachers.

0.5 (w) + 0.36 (1400-w) = 588.

w can be figured out. Let us not spend time finding w ... Hence, suff

Statement 2:

We realize that 300 women and 288 men were pro-research.

But, do we know the number of women teachers surveyed ? No.
do we know the number of women who were NOT pro-research ? No.

Hence, insuff.

Is it A ??

Thanks !

Yes, the answer is A. Thanks for the quick reply. Silly me, couldn't think of the (1400 -w) thing to get the number of men!

Made x the number of women. Yup, the answer is A.

0.5x + 0.36(1400-x) = 588 linear equation of 1 variable.
