Question 29 Choice:E Answer: © Time:0:00 ‘The road between town A and town B is 500 miles long. John drove directly from town A to town B while Jane drove directly from town B to town A. They started driving at the same time and never broke the speed limit of 70 mph, Did Jane arrive at her destination earlier than John gid? (1) After 5 hours, they crossed paths 200 miles away from town A. (2) Jane's average speed was 60 mph. ‘A. Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not. B. Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not. C. BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient. D. Each statement ALONE is sufficient, E. Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient, (C) Statement (1) implies that Jane's average speed up to the moment the two have met was greater than John’s speed. But, you know nothing about their speeds after the meeting point. If after meeting, John drove with an average speed of 70 mph and Jane with an average speed of only 20, mph, then John would make it to his destination earlier. On the other hand, if average speeds after mesting point were ‘switched, then Jane would make it earlier. Therefore, statement (1) is NOT sufficient by itself. ‘Statement (2) tells you thal Jane's average speed was 60 mph. But, you know nothing about John's average speed. So, statement (2) is NOT sufficient by itself. Now, use both statements together. From statement (2) you know that trip took Jane 500/60 = 25/3 hours long, ‘Statement (1) implies that it took John 5 hours to travel 200 miles. Even if he traveled the rest 300 miles with fastest possible speed of 70 mph, then he would not be able to make it earlier than Jane, 5 + 300/70 = 6517 > 9 > 2513 Therefore, statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are sufficient to answer the question. The correct answer is choice (C).
