December 2010 ACT Math Discussion

<p>Discuss all Math questions here after the test tomorrow. Good luck! :)</p>

<p>Math was so so easy…how did you guys do?</p>

<p>wow i thought it was really easy until i hit the last column of answers…anyone remember or estimate about how much of the answers were C for the last column for math???</p>

<p>■■■</p>

<p>I am pretty sure I got a 36 (although some of them were sorta tricky), but there was one that I wasn’t sure about. It was the locker combination + number one, what did you guys get for that?</p>

<p>Also, I would say this math was normal- not too easy not too hard.</p>

<p>26<em>25</em>24<em>23</em>22*10</p>

<p>Is the TI-83 a legal calculator for math?</p>

<p>yes?..</p>

<p>Sorry for asking for such a dumb question, but how many/estimation number of Cs on the last column? I know I got one A, it was like (4-1.75)</p>

<p>Dont remember. What were the questions?</p>

<p>This thread is going to explode with people in 5…4…3…2…1…SHOWTIME!</p>

<p>^Lol, eagle I’m not sure anyone remembers.</p>

<p>@Yale- That’s why I put because its…DAMMIT!</p>

<p>No, the answer was 26^5 (10)</p>

<p>Ughhhhhhhhhhhh…there goes my 36 lol.</p>

<p>because without repition it would have been </p>

<h1>of numbers * n!/(n-r)!</h1>

<p>but with repetition it’s simply n^r * # of numbers</p>

<p>Any chance of +1 curve? :slight_smile: Well I guess it really doesn’t matter to me since I can use my math score from October, idk.</p>

<p>Didn’t the problemm say it was without repetition?</p>

<p>I have a lame question, but for the one about the five people in the line the answer was 25 not 120, yes?</p>

<p>it was 120…right?</p>

<p>I hope it was 120…5! = 120</p>

<p>gah, I hope it wasn’t 120…I changed my answer to 25 because I thought 120 was way too big of a number…</p>

<p>The letters were with replacement, so (26)^5(10).</p>

<p>120.</p>

<p>crap. Oh well, I have 35 from September. No biggie.</p>

<p>^Yes that one was 120. But no, it clearly said it was WITH repetition. I knew that 26^5* 10 was right, but I wasn’t sure so I went with 26<em>25</em>24<em>23</em>22*10…</p>
