here is sol details Url---> http://postimg.org/image/jftrtznqx/ - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(3)
- Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient to answer the question
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(5)
- Guys,pls ans this Q with proper explanation..
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- x^3(1-x^2)0 which is false
let x=0 -1>0 which is false
let x=-1 0>0 which is false
Therefore Statement (1) is sufficient & not statement (2) alone. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(4)
- statement 1 alone sufficient..
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(6)
- statement 1
either x30
each statement alone is sufficient to answer the question - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(1)
- Neither of the statement is sufficient as x is not less than 0.
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- If we analyse Statement 1: LHS can be less than 0 for two cases:
- Case 1: x < 0 and |x| < 1 (so that x^3 will be -ve and (1-x^2) will be +ve)
- Case 2: x > 0 and |x| > 1 (so that x^3 will be +ve and (1-x^2) will be -ve)
Now on analyzing Statement 2: x^2 > 1 => |x| > 1 => case 2 above gets satisfied. Hence we need both the statements. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- @Naveen, why you are taking & condition, It may possible to take or condition also.In given ques it was not said that take and for both statemens.
And Finaly you answered x belongs to (1, infinity) which is also wrong. Just put x=2 in statement 1 and see the outcomes. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- Dear bro, anurag u hv to work more on Data sufficiency...
If u put x=2
1)-24 0
Both conditions followed... - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- @Anurag if u put x=2
Then 1) -24 2)3
Both conditions followed i.e 1).0 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Is x
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- but naveen kumar when we put x=-1 then 2 condition will fail it will become zero.
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- @ Ankush the value of x lies between 1 and infinity...
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- take x as -1 & solve
both r not sufficient - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- X>0
x^3-x^5 >0 if x is negative
but its provided that x^3(1-x^2)0 does not define the sign of x
=> only statement 1 is sufficient and reliable to provide solution
Option A - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Statement 1 alone is sufficient .
- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- just put x=2 and check.
1.-24
2.3>0
both are true but still x is positive.
hence both are not sufficient to answer the question. - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- For me (C)
Stat 1
x^3(1-x^2) 0
[ x > 0 and (x^2 -1)>0 ] or [ x < 0 and (x^2 -1) 1 or -1 < x < 0
INSUFF
Stat 2
x^2-1 1 or -1 < x < 0 ] and -1 < x < 1
-1 < x < 0
SUFF - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- BODHAYAN NANDI If we take x
- 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
