December ACT 2008 Math

<p>Whatever the slope of AB was is the answer: C is on a
line // to AB. Anybody remembers the coordinates?</p>

<p>the slope of AB was 4/3</p>

<p>are u sure?, dont you mean -4/3</p>

<p>I remember it was like (0,6) and (8,2) and C was (-3,2)</p>

<p>I'm not sure but i think AB had a positive slope. AC had a negative slope. B and C were had the same x cord of 2.</p>

<p>It was a positive slope. (0,6) and (-3,2) turns out to be 4/3.</p>

Yesssss!
It was!!
And as I recalled earlier,
the slope of AB was -4/8</p>

<p>-1/2 is the FINAL answer.</p>

<p>So are we deciding now that it was -1/2?
That's what I got, but earlier everyone kept saying it was wrong so I was having doubts.
Sweeeet</p>

<p>Peer pressure... Worked even on me. Everybody was saying. -3/4, and I thought that's what I must've gotten.
The case of bourn identity. :D</p>

<p>the slope of AB was 3/4
It was a right triangle... with the legs of 3 and 4.</p>

it was like (384+k)/6 = 85

Mean of the first five grades was given. I don't remember the number, but say if it was 84, then the answer would be
(5*84+x)/6.</p>

<p>SoCaliii remembers it right:
A(0,6), B(8,2), C(-3,2).
Point C was moving.</p>

<p>^ Oh. right. I remember now.</p>

<p>Does anyone know how ACT scoring would go (as in, venture a guess)? Like for the SATs, people would go -5 is maybe a 720 on CR....</p>

<p>What would -15 ( I know....) on Math be? And how much, on average, do you need to miss to get a 28+?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>lol. i'm currently enrolled in precal hnrs rite now and we haven't gone over some of the math. ran out of time toward the end and randomly filled in 7 bubbles.</p>

<p>Georgetown Gal, depending on the curve -15 will be 21~25</p>

<p>Any chance of -1 = 36? lol</p>

<p>I got all these, but what is the chord-radius question?</p>

<p>^two radii and a chord form a triangle</p>
