Controversial Math Question on JUN SAT?

<p>could somebody please tell me which problem this was?</p>

<p>It was the one with the parabola and the equations y=x^2 and y=4. It also gave you a boundary and roman numerals, etc.</p>

<p>The controversy is emphasized on the word "interior" because it has dual meanings. Possible answers: "None" or "II and III"</p>

<p>Personally, I picked "None" but I'm starting to have some doubts...:(</p>

<p>But what were the answer choices? I am very interested in this problem, but I don't know what the numerals stood for at all.</p>

<p>For the record, interior is pretty clearly defined. The interior of the figure bounded by y=x and y=x^2 has a domain of -2<x<2, because it is on the inside of the lines x=-2 and x=2. That is basically something we know for sure.</p>

<p>II: y>x^2
III: |x|<2</p>

<p>It was either II&III or none, but interior most definately is not inclusive so it shuold be II&III.</p>

<p>i think i picked II and III, just because i don't remember ever selecting none</p>

<p>and the stranger part is that i don't even remember this question...experimental maybe?</p>

<p>I certainly hope it's experimental...</p>

<p>it's not lol....I had it and I had experimental CR</p>

<p>I feel you quickandslowly........</p>

<p>wow ok then its def. not experimental
i had an experimental math section for sure though</p>

<p>i usually remember all the problems i had in math...oh well</p>

<p>III is definitely correct, by definition of interior. The value of x is between -2 and 2.</p>

<p>It's like these type of questions help those who get few wrong(750-800(rare for -1 to equal 800) but hurt those who get enough wrong to get a 650-690.</p>
