Q1 - M25

hi guys,

am referring to Q1 of the free M25 test - pls see below
OA is B but i chose E because i dont think S2 is sufficient

if x is 1, then I X-6 I should be = 5 and not >5
if x is -1, then I X-6 I > 5

Any thought, anyone?

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is I X-6 I > 5?
1. X is an integer
2. X^2 < 1

Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but Statement (1) ALONE is not sufficient

Consider its geometric interpretation: is the distance between and 6 on the number line greater than 5?
Statement (1) is not sufficient by itself.
Statement (2) is sufficient by itself. is confined between -1 and 1 and thus is further than 5 units away from 6.


Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but Statement (2) ALONE is not sufficient
Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but Statement (1) ALONE is not sufficient
BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient
EACH statement ALONE is sufficient
Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient
Consider its geometric interpretation: is the distance between and 6 on the number line greater than 5?

Statement (1) is not sufficient by itself.

Statement (2) is sufficient by itself.X is confined between -1 and 1 and thus is further than 5 units away from 6.

The correct answer is B.
