<p>Do you remember the answer choices?
I don’t remember what I put for that and I’m quite paranoid that I did something stupid.</p>
<p>The longest side was 20, one was 16 and the other was either 8 or 12. I think it was 8 though because I vaguely remember getting 44 for the perimeter but I’m not sure. All I know is that the lengths were multiples of 4</p>
<p>The answers were in multiples of 11, and I’m pretty sure you’re right—44 is what I got.</p>
<p>Multiples of 11?
Nothing else?</p>
<p>(so like 11, 22, 33, 44, 55?)</p>
<p>I agree with oscarlany. I have no idea what blaargh is talking about</p>
<p>Iknow there was a math problem like 2x+5= 5k(x+1) and it wanted to know what value of k gave NO solution…</p>
<p>BUT was there another question with a k in it that asked for what value of k does it make the 2 equations equal and the answer was 15???</p>
<p>Yup, 2/5 for NS, 15 for all solutions</p>
<p>what was the equation where 15 was the solution?</p>
<p>I forgot,sorry
It was something like
x^2+45x+27 on the left</p>
<p>no problem, I wrote down something like 5k-3…not sure of that was part of the equation?</p>
<p>Sure that wasn’t the NS problem?
I’m sure the all solutions problem had a quadratic on both sides; one was standard form and the other one was k * factoredform</p>
<p>oh, you are probably right…i was trying to remember it and it is futile at this point! i know i got 15 but wasn’t sure it was right…</p>
<p>No, the 15 was a separate question from the no solution question; I still have a calculation in my calculator from it. I’m sure you got it though, tbradsworth, as it was quite easy - foil out one side and look for a common coefficient.</p>
<p>i believe novelidea and tbradsworth are talking about the same question when they say they got the answer 15 for a value of k</p>
<p>I believe the contrary. There were two k problems: one with an answer of 2/5 and the other with an answer of 15.</p>
<p>No I meant there were two questions; one was find K for NS, the other was find K for all solutions; one was 2/5 and the other was 15 (convert the factored form to standard form; factor out a 15)</p>
<p>I got 4 for the circle with the radius of 6…</p>
<p>I also got appreciative for the linguistic passage. I don’t believe he was being ironic at all. He was talking about how learning language is one of the complex of processes, even more so than learning the capitals or whatever other he had said. </p>
<p>For the satellite one with Pluto, I think I put an issue with reclassification (seeing as the definition wasn’t definitive, as definitions should be). This is because it was unclear whether or not the fact that Pluto and its moon were satellites of each other would work. I don’t really understand the point on it being “supportive.”</p>
<p>Does anyone remember the question where it asked 5 people are sharing a price equally, and when 6 people share it equally the price for each person is reduced by 8?</p>
<p>The answer is $240 for the total rent of the car [8<em>6</em>5=240]</p>
