<p>I'm in ap calc, and derivatives help a bit. I used them on the ball question! but overall, it didn't help. I mean, luckily we were doing log, ln, e, and inverses this week in calc, so that was great review for this test. and yeah - I got .500 art_star</p>
<p>for the slope problem I think the question was find the "SUM" of the slopes. If that was the case it should be 1 - 1 + -1/7 which would be -1/7 right??</p>
<p>it was product...the question asked you to multiply the slopes of the three lines together.</p>
<p>also, does anyone think that there's ANY reasonable chance that the curve will be something more generous than 43 raw for 800?</p>
<p>hmm in that case im wrong :</p>
<p>and what did you guys get for the median for the stem and leaf plot? 36.5?</p>
<p>^ Yeah, that's what it was. I just took my fingers and moved them along the leaves until I came to the middle XD</p>
<p>Haha me too.. I'd never done stem and leaf plots before so I stared at it for like 5 minutes before I actually understood how it worked. The one with the graph of log 10 where you had to find the area of the trapezoid was 135 right? All I did was (1+2)<em>(100-10)</em>.5 = 135 :</p>
<p>I hate this thread. God how many did i get wrong lol</p>
<p>lol me too, kevin. this is sooooo depressing. and this is my second time too! colleges are gonna think im absolutely retarded.</p>
<p>Yep, it was 135 =) Areas with graphs are efficient and easy.
And I know exactly how you feel kevin.. although I'm feeling more like a failure over in the Physics thread than this one..
And same here, art_star. I hope they don't think I've decided to slack off or that I suddenly stopped caring or that I'm becoming more stupid XD</p>
<p>yeah, i'm trying to think of more questions...do you guys remember a question that had something to do with absolute values and inequalities? it was like, which answer fulfills this equation? i have no idea what i put for that one..the answer choices were all something like -3<x<3, in that type of format.</p>
<p>I remember that one, but I don't remember which answer choice I picked. I knew my answer was right though..</p>
<p>What was the one where x^2 + 9x + 7 = 0 had roots/zeroes of s and t, so what is the equation with roots (s+1) and (t+1)? Or something like that? I think I made a guess after eliminating three of the answers but it was a random 50/50 guess due to only having 4 minutes left in the test @_@</p>
<p>yeah i have a feeling i put the right answer too, but lately my gut "feelings" have failed me so =/</p>
<p>YEAHHH literally at the last second i had to guess between two! i put something with x^2+9x...i just dont remember the second part lol. but earlier in the thread someone said it was x^2+9x+10.</p>
<p>Wow, same here o_o I put something with x^2+9x+c but I don't remember what number was in the c slot.</p>
<p>Augh. I wish I had better memory.</p>
<p>wow i like dont remmeber any of these questions lol. I hope myself like 15 hours ago did these right...</p>
<p>Yeah Im pretty sure the x^2 +9x + c answer was right and there was only one option with 9 as the coefficient of x.</p>
<p>Also what was the answer for the one that said find the value of k for which the following eqn has no vertical asymptotes: (2x+k)/(x+3)</p>
<p>^^ i think that was k=6 wasnt it?
or somethin like that</p>
<p>It was 6.
Plugging in 6 into that function gives you a horizontal line.</p>
<p>ah yes i got that too :D</p>
<p>Yeah and there was that one question with the line in space and it asked which of the following represents all the points 2 units away from the line.. It was a cylinder with radius 2 right?</p>
