Inequities Data Sufficiency

by alsergi » Fri Sep 26, 2008 8:06 am

Hi All !!! Could anyone help me with this, please?

Thanks in advance:

Is x <= 3 ?

1. 6x<= 24
2. 3x+1>=12

The answer is supposed to be D, but I dont get the point, I should tried B ...

I dont understand the D since 1 states that x <= 4, so it could be less than 3 or between 3 and four so I think is not sufficient ...

Yes, you're right- statement 1 is not sufficient as written. Where is the question from?

Is from a GMAT test software in the particular school I study in Spain ... So I will check with the software administrator. Thank you very much!!!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
