<p>If that was an option it’s wrong. It can also be 0</p>

<p>F****, thats the second strike!!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>BOOM! Bambambambam</p>

<p>The last one… sqrt(r/s) + sqrt(s/r). I put E: (r+s)/sqrt(rs).</p>

<p>I cannot see the third strike, Im just going to sleep, Ill be back when the results come out.</p>

<p>^no
it was (r+s)/sqrt(rs)</p>

<p>i think it was</p>

<p>(r+s)/sqrt(rs) </p>

<p>I just made r = 2 and s = 4 and then tested it</p>

<p>****! IT WAS ADDITION! no 36 for me.</p>

<p>What was the answer to the one where B was reflected across across the midpoint of <em>__line and </em> line…I don’t remember the letters for them.</p>

<p>Did anyone get 7.5 for some question?</p>

<p>And it was asking for length or something. Thats the only one I guessed on.</p>

<p>7.5= reflecting B across the midpoint line</p>

<p>Oh and this one I was 100% sure about:</p>

<p>a^n < (-a)^m</p>

<p>It asked for an explanation and I put that a ^m > ^n and it was an even integer. Because I know that if u square a negative number it will result in a positive number…so if you cube it or something, it’ll stay negative right? Because a negative * a negative * a negative is a negative right?</p>

<p>yes it was even, but m was greater than </p>

<p>2^ 3 = 8
-2^4 = 16</p>

<p>

You have m and n in the wrong places.</p>

<p>I agree with you guys on [7.5] and [^m > ^n and n was an even integer].</p>

<p>ACT: Didn’t you read my answers? I said 7.5 was the distance between the intersection of AC and BF where F was the point E translated over the midpoints of both the sides (something like that).</p>

<p>And I think I might have chosen 7.5. What was the letter? I chose either A or B…but I know that it wasn’t a whole number.</p>

<p>

No, I didn’t read every post in this thread.</p>

<p>Am I the only one who noticed that estimation was FAR more useful on all of the recently released and published practice tests than on this one? It was for me, at any rate. Curious.</p>
