Yahoo provides the SAT Math Problem of the Day to challenge your brain.
Deane pointed this out on Gadgetopia. I’ve gotten a little rusty on my algebraic expressions, and I plan on hitting this one daily. On the first one I tried, I got the correct answer, but got sucked into the trick part of the question. Dang!
One number is 4 times another. The sum of the two numbers is -15. What is the value of the smaller number?
A. 5
B. -3
C. -5
D. -12
E. -15
I won’t give the answer; I’ll let you figure it out.
