\r\n 86<\/td>\r\n \r\n Top<\/td>\r\n \r\n In the explanation of #3, the diagram mistakenly circled answer choice A. The correct answer is D, and the letter D should be circled.<\/td>\r\n \r\n \u00a0<\/td>\r\n \r\n \u00a0<\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n
\r\n 89<\/td>\r\n \r\n Bot<\/td>\r\n \r\n The first line of the middle column in the table is incorrect. It should say “If y > 0:”<\/td>\r\n \r\n If y < 0:<\/td>\r\n \r\n If y > 0:<\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n
\r\n 91<\/td>\r\n \r\n Top<\/td>\r\n \r\n Number testing for Statement 1, 2!\/2! is not a valid example, because y must be positive. However, if y = 2 and x = 4, then (y + 2)!\/x! = 4!\/4! = 1, so the statement is still insufficient.<\/td>\r\n \r\n \u00a0<\/td>\r\n \r\n \u00a0<\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n

\r\n 98<\/td>\r\n \r\n Top<\/td>\r\n \r\n The explanation for Statement 2 in question 4-2 gives an incorrect number of Bravos sold.<\/td>\r\n \r\n If there were 40 Alphas sold, there were 10 Bravos sold.<\/td>\r\n \r\n If there were 40 Alphas sold, there were 5 Bravos sold.<\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n
\r\n 106<\/td>\r\n \r\n Bot<\/td>\r\n \r\n In “Try-It #4-9,” statement 1 is incorrectly written. It should say that “a” is equal to “b^2.”<\/td>\r\n \r\n (1) a^2 = b^2<\/td>\r\n \r\n (1) a = b^2<\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n
\r\n 151<\/td>\r\n \r\n Mid<\/td>\r\n \r\n Question #4 should state that y is a positive integer. The way the question is currently worded, the answer should be E.<\/td>\r\n \r\n What is the units digit of y?<\/td>\r\n \r\n What is the units digit of positive integer y?<\/td>\r\n <\/tr>\r\n

\r\n 169<\/td>\r\n \r\n Top<\/td>\r\n \r\n The explanation for question #1 incorrectly translates the original question. (5^[3\/2])^x became (5^[2\/3])^x. The correct answer should be x = 2\/3.<\/td>\r\n \r\n 5^(2x\/3) = 5\r\n
2x\/3 = 1\r\n
x = 3\/2<\/td>\r\n 		\r\n 5^(3x\/2) = 5\r\n
3x\/2 = 1\r\n
