---|---|---|---|---|
20 | Bottom | The correct answer should be 4, NOT 3. | The correct answer is 3. | The correct answer is 4. |
23 | Top | The first sentence says “ahree” when it should say “three” | Start using the following ahree-step approach on all Quant problems: | Start using the following three-step approach on all Quant problems: |
63 | Top | In the list of 6 inequalities to the right of the triangle, the third inequality in the first row should be addition, NOT subtraction. | 9 – 8 > 5 | 9 + 8 > 5 |
93 | E-BOOK ONLY | The question stem should read x = (y / 80) – 20. The -20 is missing from the e-book version. The solution would be (0, 0) using the misprinted formula of x = y / 80 in the e-book. | x = (y / 80) | x = (y / 80) – 20 |
95 | Bottom | The second half of the explanation for question #5 is actually the explanation for question #8. | ||
96 | Bottom | The rest of the explanation for question #8 is on the previous page, under question #5. Everything after “The line intersects the x-axis when y = 0.” | ||
106 | Middle | People have asked about the fact that the slope equation printed here is different than it is elsewhere in the book. The slope equation works both ways (either “2 – 1” or “1 – 2”) as long as you consistently use the same order on top and bottom. | ||
142 | Top | The top right triangle (30–60–90) is mislabeled. | Swap the 30° and 60° labels in the triangle. |
