(x/y)^n
Published (2009-11-26 14:25:00)
If x, y and n are positive integers, is (x/y)^n greater than 1000? (1)x=y^3 and n>y. (2)x>5y and n>x.

my pick for B (1) obviously insufficient (2)if x,y and n integers >0 then the least value of y=1 then the least value for x=6 so as 6>5*1 and the least n=7 6^7>1000 sufficient
