The correct option is
B Either of the statements I or II is sufficient.
The question asks for the value of y, so isolate y in the given equation:
√xy3=x
xy3=x2
xy=3x2
y=3x It's okay to divide by x since you know that x is not 0
In other words, if you can find the value of x, then you can also find the value of y.
(1) SUFFICIENT: statement (1) provides the value of xy but does not provide the value of x and y individually. For example, x could be 1 and y could be 3 or x could be 2 and y could be 6. Ironically, the combo is not helpful here since this same combo is given in teh stem.
(2) SUFFICIENT: With x, you can find y using the rephrased equation from the question stem.
This problem is a reminder that sometimes what appears to be a combo question might just involve "school" algebra of solving for a single variable.
