B.
the requirement that A and B are not both zero is not satisfied
C.

D.
the equation is written in standard form

Answer 1

In choice A, what is A supposed to be greater than or equal to?
You put "A > or equal to...is not satisfied"

Answer 2

i would go with
C. A, B, and C do not have a greatest common factor of 1

Answer 3

I think it's supposed to be A >= 0

Answer 4

\[12=2x+4y\]is the same as
\[6=x+2y\]

Answer 5

besides, 95% of the time the answer is C

Answer 6

yeah right because it says to explain why it is *not* standard form
it's not standard form because you can reduce more
That's what choice C is saying

Answer 7

You're supposed to reduce until you can't divide the same number through everything

Answer 8

Urban legend ;)

Answer 9

Some test maker should make the answers all A to mess with people's heads
