What is the value of abcd+a+b+c+d ?
(1) a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d = 249
Clearly not sufficient, the combinations areendless
(2) d>= 249
Clearly no sufficient, no info about otherterms
1+2) Now\(a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d = 249\) and\(d\geq{249}\) remeber that a squared number cannot have a negative value, and its least value is 0.
With this the only combination that respect 1 and 2 is\(0+0+0+249=249\) , if you (for example) say that d=250 than\(a^2 + b^2 + c^2\) must be nagative =>impossible (at least it equals
