<p>while I chose rocket A, im doubtful my reasoning was correct. not that it matters though, I had $50 bet on rocket A. AP Calculus Race of the Century. </p>
<p>GO GO GO ROCKET A!</p>
<p>I think I wrote that on my exam in retrospect.</p>
<p>5 for sure... :)</p>
<p>If anyone feels bad for picking rocket A...</p>
<p>I didn't pick a rocket at all. I fudged some integrals here and there and started drawing pictures of Batman. I feel alright about the multiple choice, and pretty decent about a few of the free response things, so hopefully I'll luck out and get a three.</p>
<p>I also got rocket A lol. I think it's right(if I remember the acceleration function from the test and the initial conidtion correctly) although at my school most people got rocket B as well....</p>
<p>It was rocket B. Its velocity or whatever we were finding was like 53.something, while A's was 50. I remember you had to add something on. If you forgot to add it on, you would've gotten 48ish or something like that.</p>
<p>It was definately rocket B. Just integrate the acceleration formula to get the velocity and plug in the variable.</p>
<p>you know what? screw the driver of rocket B. he put sand in Rocket A's gas tank. basssssstaaaaaaard</p>
<p>Rocket A wins by default!</p>
<p>how about the equation to the tangent line at x=108? </p>
<p>That's gotta be the worse calc question ever. Stumped me then...still stumps me now.</p>
<p>jay144-lol</p>
<p>bump mump bump</p>
<p>for the problem where the answer was 11/20, did it ask u to put the units?</p>
<p>yeah i think it was feet/sec^2?</p>
<p>It was clearly rocket B. (50 to 49 ft/s)</p>
<p>That's what i got, too. I hope it's correct.</p>
<p>heh. for the tangent at 108, it was really simple.... every 5 you have a period, so the first 105 values of x don't matter. what's left is 3. so u just find the derivative of whatever fxn it was at 3, and that's ur answer.</p>
<p>does anyone know when the answers are usually released</p>
<p>After AP scores are released.</p>
<p>For a certain free response dealing with area between two functions - was the whole region highlighted? Someone said it wasn't and its scaring me now.</p>
<p>i believe the whole region was highlighted.</p>
<p>yeah, the period one wasn't too bad idt...</p>
<p>so although the FRs are online tomorrow, the answers won't be?</p>
<p>dragon17,
Unfortunately, the only other scoring breakdown that I have is from the 1973 test.
It was:</p>
<p>0-31 = 1
32 - 48 = 2
49 - 70 = 3
71 - 86 = 4
87 - 112 = 5</p>
<p>Of course, this isn't very helpful because the entire 1973 test was non-calculator, and the total score is set out of 112 instead of 108.</p>
<p>In any case, I've heard that the cut off for a 5 is usually in the 70s range. Perhpas 2006's will be in the high end of the 70s or maybe the lower 80s.</p>
