2011 January SAT: Math

<p>For the slope equals -4, does anyone remember what letter -4 was?</p>

<p>I think it was B, but I’m not 100% sure.</p>

<p>And to answer some other peoples’ questions recently on this thread…

  1. The answer was 9:4 for the W to X problem.
  2. 80 minutes was the machine overlap problem.
  3. There were 9 ways to add the numbers 1-7 to make an even number.
  4. There were 2 “grid in” answers that were 4.</p>

<p>I think the answer choice was A?
It went something like this
A -4
B -1/4
C (don’t remember this one)
D 1/4
E 4</p>

<p>Either that or it was flipped around</p>

<p>@GoodScores do you remember the Grid-in with the answer of 16?</p>

<p>Sadly I do not, but I do remember putting down 16 as an answer</p>

<p>Hmmm… nobody seems to remember this question.</p>

<p>I don’t remember answers as well as questions. The only grid ins i remember are 1080, 420, 1/3, and the two 4’s.</p>

<p>wait which math section was the experimental the one with the diagonal question or the one with the 1/n-1/n-1 question</p>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>What was the answer to the knitting question again?
Thanks!</p>

<p>50k to 60k but it was experimental</p>

<p>^canbambi the question was the one with the triangle and parallelogram and you had to find the perimeter of the parallelogram. The answer was 16.</p>

<p>my TI 89 saved my ass on the series question.</p>

<p>did anyone else have trouble with the last problem (not sure which section) asking about the length of like segment BE? It gave you some dimensions and looked like a square on top of some sort of shape. The answers involved sqrt(3) and sqrt(2) in fractions. I could have sworn that I had the right method, but I didn’t seem to get an answer.</p>

I posted an explanation here, got the labeling wrong but it still works</p>

<p>^I actually only realized how to solve that problem after the test. Luckily, I eyeballed the question (since it was drawn to scale) and got it right. :)</p>

<p>^ I solved that one out the arduous way and then went through the answers to see which one matched mine. Brute-forcing it… inefficient but works well if you have the time. :D</p>

<p>I got choice E for that last question</p>

<p>with the square root</p>

<p>was the answer to the cola tea coffee A or E? or the reverse order of the chart or the same?</p>

<p>It was from the bottom of the chart to the top I think. (Cola, Tea, Coffee)</p>

<p>the radio question was b.s.
by including the word also it led me to think that they were asking for the probability of the first AND second one being defective ): i put 2/5 and still think it should be right</p>

<p>it specifically stated that the first pick was in the past and what is the chance of the 2nd of not being defective?</p>
