36、(1) tells us nothing about the relationship of AB to BC, so the answer cannot be A or D. Statement (2), however, tells us that AB must be a smaller number than BC. This gives us sufficient information to answer the question in the negative, so the answer is B. Note that it does not matter whether th

37、e answer to a Data Sufficiency question is yes or no; it only matters that you have sufficient data to answer the question. 2 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 alone is not sufficient, because there could be 6 or 60 black jelly beans in the jar. (2) alone is not sufficient, because there could be 1 orange and 2 purpl

38、es, or 20 oranges and 40 purples. But (1) and (2) together tell us there are 27 orange jelly beans, 54 purple jelly beans, and therefore 9 black jelly beans. 3 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 To be able to answer this question, we need to know a numerical value for x, because any numerical value will give a value f

39、or 3x that is either greater or less than 100. (1) gives the value of 4 for x, so it is sufficient (3x=81; it is not greater). (2) can be restated as 100 3x, so 3x cannot be greater than 100, and (2) is sufficient to answer the question. 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 Statement (1) alone is insufficient because

40、it does not give the breakdown between dogs and cats of the 30 animals. Statement (2) alone is insufficient because the pair of numbers described could be 2 and 4, 3 and 9, 4 and 16, and so on. When the two statements are combined, however, there is only one pair of numbers that can match both state

41、ments: 5 and 25. That is sufficient information to answer the question. 5 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 One way to verify this is to plug in even numbers; the results soon show that the result is always half of p plus 1/2, which is never an integer. You could also simplify the equation to , and since an even numb

42、er plus 1 is always an odd number, dividing the sum by 2 will never produce an integer. So statement (1) alone is sufficient. Statement (2) results in integers if p is an odd multiple of 3, but in non-integers if p is an even multiple of 3, so this statement alone is not sufficient. 6 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析

43、】 It is probably easiest to approach this question by plugging in the available answers and seeing which one works. If it was 31 teeth (answer A), for example, then we know that the doctor implanted 18 gold and 13 silver. 18$650+13$325=$15,925, so A is the answer. 7 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 can be restated a

44、s 7. If you multiply 7 times both numbers to get rid of the fraction in 3/7, you get 3 and 49. 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 Restate both statements as equations: a+b=220 and b+c=320. Subtract the second equation from the first and you get a+b-b-c=220-320=a-c=-100. 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 $8,000 divided by $300 per p

45、erson means that the company must book 26.67 passengers to make a profit, so in practice this means 27 passengers. 27 required minus 18 already booked means that the company must find 9 more passengers. 10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 The statement 3x2+2x(4-x) can be restated as x2+8x. Thus, the original equatio

46、n can be restated as x=3, so x2=9. 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 For an aircraft with a 40-gallon tank to fly 480 miles, it must average at least 480/40=12 miles per gallon. 12-8=4. 12 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 First, determine what percentage of the budget is devoted to basic astrophysics: 14+24+15+29+8=90, so 10% is l

47、eft over for astrophysics. There are 360 in a circle, so multiply the 10% by 360/100 and you get 36. 13 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 alone is sufficient; add the two equations together and you get 2y=50, so y=25 and x=11. (2) alone is sufficient, because if you plug the equation into the question, you get x+2x+3

48、=36, or 3x=33, so x=11 and y=25. 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 From the information given in the passage, we can determine that the vendor sold 30 hotdogs at lunchtime. To determine the percentage of the total stock sold, we need to know the total stock of hotdogs. (1) provides this number, while (2) does not,

49、 so the answer is A. 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 To answer this question, the statements have to prove either that the equation above is true or that it cannot be true. (1) alone is insufficient; it allows the equation to be restated as 3b=bc+3, which could be true or not true depending on the values of b and c. (2) alone is insufficient; it allows the equation to be restated as ab=b2+3b+3, which could be true or not true depending on the values of a and b. If the two are combined, the equation can be restated as 3b=b2+3b+3, which can be
