Picking numbers...

This problem is from The Official GMAT Quantitative Review 2005 (a GMAC publication; page 76, problem 111)

Any idea how to solve this problem using the Kaplan method of picking numbers?? Is it possible??


Problem: If k does not equal zero and k - [(3 – 2k^2)/2] = x/K, then x =

A. -3 – k^2
B. k^2 – 3
C. 3k^2 – 3
D. k – 2k^2
E. k – 3 + 2k^2

The answer is C.

Just put k = 2

funny, as I had been working with that vary value. When K = 2, x = 7 and, using those values, I could not get a single answer choice to give me 7 when k = 2. Did using k =2 allow you to answer the question correctly?

crap! as i suspected, my mistake was due to a silly arithmetic mistake. You were right, K = 2 does work. Thanks!
