Hi All, The GMAT Quant section is not a "math test"; it's a test of your critical thinking skills and math is the subject through which those skill tests are run. While you will end up doing plenty of math in that section, it's important to know what the concepts are "in context"...

the following comes to my mind for this problem when x < -6/10, 10x + 6 is -ve Hence 0 < 10y-4 < -(10x + 6) -- (y has to be > 4/10 for this eqn to hold true) when x > -6/10 10x + 6 is +ve Hence 0 < 10y-4 < (10x + 6) -- (y has to be > 4/10 for this eqn to hold true) This can help us find a range of y...
