<p>Okay, someone help me out here.</p>

<p>There was a question on the English section that had two adjectives with "but" preceding the second one. Was there a comma between them?</p>

<p>I can't remembed if the rule about the two being intechangable applies if there is a conjuction thrown in.</p>

<p>Maybe someone else remembers this one?</p>

<p>yes!!!!!!</p>

<p>I remember that one. There is no comma before the but.</p>

<p>I narrowed it down to simply but or simply - but.</p>

<p>I chose simply but...</p>

<p>That was in the kayak story right?</p>

<p>That's what I thought. What do you mean by "simply - but"? Was that a choice? I put "but." If there's no comma, i'm pretty sure that is the answer.</p>

<p>2 questions...</p>

<p>English</p>

<p>on the kayak section there was a question about what word fits best</p>

<p>people/paddlers/nature watchers paddle something something somthing... which one was it</p>

<p>another went like " in 40 yrs/ 40 yrs- can you believe/ 40yrs, amazing!/ ... which one.</p>

<p>aslo for the u, T 9(t-u) ... was that B or C.</p>

<p>yet another one was about to lines intersect, one has a M= 2 , what is the slope of the other. for the question w/ bisecting angles and a triangle how can you prove it was 60. I know the sum of the bottom angles where 120 but<br>
you dont know that they are equal. unless it said that the top and bottom line were //.</p>

<p>Yeah that was a choice..I think it went:</p>

<p>NO CHANGE
Simply, but
simply but
simply - but</p>

<p>What about the whole --can you believe it?-- question? What is the consensus on that one?</p>

<p>I put nature watchers...paddlers paddle seemed too repetitive and people was too general.</p>

<p>and I put in 40 yrs.</p>

<p>Kian, I put nature watchers because it said the answer should be supported by the other part of the sentence</p>

<p>Oh I guess my logic is wrong, but the answer is right :)</p>

<p>From a grammar website: </p>

<p>Use a dash to announce a list, restatement or an amplification.</p>

<p>"He had worked hard—did his coach realize how hard?—to improve his free throw shooting."</p>

<p>I think "can you believe it" was correct as it was.</p>

<p>Spartan, I didn't catch that part until I read the question the second time. That made me sure it was "nature watchers"</p>

<p>Kian, the answer to the T, U question was "B" on my test, IIRC.</p>

<p>As far as the math goes, I put -2 for the slope one, and I put not enough information for the second. However, I think I missed the second.</p>

<p>Oh I didn't use can you believe it because I thought it was too wordy..but i don't know.</p>

<p>Yeah, dashes are weird. I didn't expect a question like that.</p>

<p>Spartan, did it seem harder to you too? I've taken it 3 times, and this was certainly the hardest, especially the math.</p>
