真题文字详解(英文)

Problem 1 What is $(-1)^{1}+(-1)^{2}+\cdots+(-1)^{2006}$?
(A) -2006 (B) -1 (C) 0 (D) 1 (E) 2006

Solution
$(-1)^n = 1$ if n is even and -1 if n is odd. So we have
$-1 + 1 - 1 + 1 - \cdots - 1 + 1 = 0 + 0 + \cdots + 0 + 0 = 0 \Rightarrow (C)$

Problem 2 For real numbers x and y, define $x\spadesuit y=(x+y)(x-y)$. What is $3\spadesuit(4\spadesuit5)$?
(A) -72 (B) -27 (C) -24 (D) 24 (E) 72

Solution
$4\spadesuit 5=-9$
$3\spadesuit -9=-72 \Rightarrow (A)$

Problem 3 A football game was played between two teams, the Cougars and the Panthers. The two teams scored a total of 34 points, and the Cougars won by a margin of 14 points. How many points did the Panthers score?
(A) 10 (B) 14 (C) 17 (D) 20 (E) 24

Solution
Solution 1
If the Cougars won by a margin of 14 points, then the Panthers' score would be half of $(34-14)$. That's $10 \Rightarrow (A)$.

Solution 2
Let the Panthers' score be $x$. The Cougars then scored $x+14$. Since the teams combined scored 34, we get $\rightarrow x=10$, and the answer is $(A)$.
