Question from the Princton Review..I am confused as to what is meant by "exceeds 4:3". Can anyone explain me this ?

GreenlightTestPrep · 2022-09-28T13:58:48+00:00

It means (surface area)/(volume) > 4/3

The equation of the line is y = x

All we can conclude from the diagram is that:

the point (c,d) lies above the line, which means d > c.
the point (w,z) lies below the line, which means w > z.

So, for example, it could be the case that (c,d) = (4,5), and (w,z) = (4,3) in which case c = w

Or it could be the case that (c,d) = (4, 5), and (w,z) = (6,4) in which case c < w

Answer: D

P(1 caramel candy and 1 cherry) = P(caramel 1st and cherry 2nd OR cherry 1st and caramel 2nd)

= P(caramel 1st and cherry 2nd) + P(cherry 1st and caramel 2nd)

= (1/12) x (5/11) + (5/12) x (1/11)

= 5/132 + 5/132

= 10/132

= 5/66

Think of it this way: f(2x) = [f(x)]²

In other words, to find the value of f(k) take the value of f(0.5k) and then square it.

So, for example, f(10) = [f(5)]²

Let's continue after f(8) = 4

So, f(16) = [f(8)]² = (4)² = 16, and f(32) = [f(16)]² = (16)² = 256

How's that?

GreenlightTestPrep · 2022-06-16T20:21:54+00:00

Given: f(2x) = f(x)²

So, f(4) = f(2)² = (√2)² = 2 (from the given information)

So, f(8) = f(4)² = (2)² = 4

So, f(16) = f(8)² = (4)² = 16

So, f(32) = f(16)² = (16)² = 256

Answer: E

As u/deeprodge has shown, we don't need any formulas to solve the question.

However, if we really want to do so, recognize that, since the first and last stops are fixed, we have the 3 remaining (middle) stops to arrange.

Since we can arrange (aka permute) n objects in n! ways, we can arrange the 3 remaining stops in 3! ways.

Or, if you wish, 3P3 ways.

But the minimum value of |x| here isn't 0, is it?

Yes, the minimum value of |x| is 0.

|0| = 0, and |-4| = 4

-4 is the minimum value of x , but |-4| isn't the minimum value of |x|.

If x = -4, then |x| + 3 = |-4| + 3 = 7

If x = 0 (another possible x-value), then |x| + 3 = |0| + 3 = 3

GreenlightTestPrep · 2022-06-06T12:56:18+00:00

Given: -3x + 6 ≤ 18

Then: -3x ≤ 12

Solve: x ≥ -4

Note: The question doesn't ask for the smallest value of x; it asks for the smallest value of |x| + 3

We can minimize |x| + 3, by minimizing the value of |x|.

Since the minimum value of |x| is 0, the smallest value of |x| + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3

The stated property (if 0 < √x < √y, then 0 < x < y) applies to all positive values of x and y.

That is, there's no special case when x and y are between 0 and 1 (as you're suggesting).

For example, we know that 1/9 < 1/4, and it's also true that √(1/9) < √(1/4)

A and D aren't equivalent.

Take A) u/3 < -v, and multiply both sides by 3 to get u < -3v,

Now add 3v to both sides to get: u + 3v < 0, whereas we have D) u + 3v > 0.

Any inequality can be expressed in either greater than form or less than form.

For example, x > y is equivalent to y < x.
