I think the answer should be C as well. A way the answer could be B is if the question say q is another positive integer instead of "q is another prime." Here's why. from statement 1, we decipher that p = 1 or 3 only. Since p = q, q = 1 or 3 only. If the statement was q is a positive integ...

4^17 = (2^2)^17
=> 2^(2*17) = 2^34

Now, for the question

4^17 - 2^28 = 2^34 - 2^28
=> Take 2 ^28 common out
=> (2^28)*((2^6)-1)
=> (2^28)*(64-1) = (2^28)*63
=> (2^28)*7*(3^2)

So. the greatest prime factor is 7.

Re: Verbal Verbal and Verbal is the key!

Verbal Verbal and only Verbal (assuming that mostly people are good in quant) is the key to grind this GMAT! To achieve 760+ Verbal is necessary. Totally agree dude... U need to be confident in English. As for me, I was never confident about the answers I marked, and I think that was the difference...

Stop studying for GMAT. Study standing out amongst MBA applicants with similar work and college histories as yours. I am an engineer from India, so in that way, my academic background is very similar to others. I am from IIT Delhi, so hopefully that would help me out later on. Also, I am into manuf...

Verbal has always been my weakness and no wonder, i did not do too well on that section. The score is pretty unbalanced. Had 760 and 770 on GMATprep, so was actually expected somethin...

S + F = 42 stmt 1 says that S > 4F. We get many possibilities stmt 2 says that F > 7. Again, we get many possibilities 1 & 2 Let pick numbers. If F = 8, S > 32. S can be any number greater than 32. If F = 9, S > 36. Hence E. For both statements together You missed out on the fact that S+F =42. ...

Re: value of n

uptowngirl92 wrote:What is the value of n?

(1) j = -4

(2) j = -k

Statement1:
j = -4... no information about k, so we can not solve the system for n
insufficient

Statement 2:

j = -k
=> slope of the line is -1
=> n = 45 degrees.
=> sufficient.


Answer (B)
