Agree w/ D, I believe all you need here are other points on the line, to evaluate with (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = slope.
what's OA?

Nevermind, I realized shortly after I wrote my post that my rationale was based on consecutive numbers, and actually has no meaning in this question.
Here's a good explanation by Ron: http://www.manhattangmat.com/forums/for ... t1950.html

I think answer's A, here's why: formula for sum of numbers in a set is: (n/2)*(first number + last number) (ie 2+3+4+5 = (4/2)*(2+5) = 14.) So, sum of this sequence would be: (10/2)*[((-1)^(1+1)*(1/(2^1))] + [((-1)^(1+10)*(1/(2^10))] =5*[(1)*(1/2)] + (-1)*(1/(2^10)) =5*[(1/2)+(-1/1024)] =5*(512/1024...

plug and chug the work problem formula, where S is small, and L is large.
(1/S)+(1/L) = (1/6).
S=2L, replace that in the formula.
(1/2L)+(1/L)=(1/6)
isolating L we get L=[6*(2+1)]/2, so L=9, and since S=2L, S=18.

Let's plug in some numbers (easy ones!). let's say a filled box weighs 10lbs total. So 10% of that weight is the empty box (0.1*10lbs=1lb). So if a partly filled box weighs half of a totally filled box (10lbs): Totally Fill: 1lb (empty) + 9lbs fill =10lbs Partly Fill: 1lb (empty) + xlbs = 5lbs (half...

Can negative numbers be odd/even?
I know this is probably a silly question, but are negative numbers also even and odd?

Say you have to pick pairs of letters from the three letters A,B,C. - If order matters, then AB and BA are two different pairs (ie it matters whether A occupies the first slot or the second). So we have 3p2 = 3!/(3-1!) = 6 possibilities {AB, BA, AC, CA, BC, CB} - If order doesn't matter, then AB and...
