June 2009 SAT Math

<p>what’s with people still talking about the low temperature question? :confused:
wasn’t it obvious – the answer was 8?</p>

<p>haha when i first came here i was thinking the math was an obvious 800. now i’m not so sure.</p>

<p>the free reponse answers</p>

<p>90
8
8
65 (for the angle bisector one??)
1491 (money one)
the 60 percent to 75 percent was anything in a range
1/2 (radius one)
158 (the first termp greater than 100)
140 </p>

<p>Anyone disagree!??!</p>

<p>Can somebody explain the box one in the grid-in section?</p>

<p>I swear I thought it was easy but I couldn’t see anything and ended up getting weird ****.</p>

<p>The question had 2 pictures, a square and a rectangle. I think the sides on the square was 2x and x+3 while the rectangle had 3x+3 and X.</p>

<p>I kept getting weird **** like 4x=X…</p>

<p>dang it … that tuition problem totally ruined my 800 then D:< *stops reading this board and ruin my mood</p>

<p>oh and add 12^ to the list</p>

<p>x was four i think on the box/rectangle ones. or maybe three…
or maybe it was two, and then two squared = 4, 4*3 = 12?</p>

<p>90
8
8
65 (for the angle bisector one??)
1491 (money one)
the 60 percent to 75 percent was anything in a range
1/2 (radius one)
158 (the first termp greater than 100)
140
12 (it didnt ask for x, it apparenlty asked for the area of the shaded region , 4*3=12)</p>

<p>all the free response?</p>

<p>confirmation</p>

<p>is the tutition one 1491??</p>

<p>is the angle bisector 65?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You had to set the two equal to each other, I forgot the specifics but you had to solve for x and then multiply by 3. x=4. You could’ve also solved it just by looking at the picture. One of the sides was labeled “2”, and since it was drawn to scale, x looked twice the size of 2.</p>

<p>1232cricket - all answers so far seem legitimate.</p>

<p>i’m with you on those.</p>

<p>tuition def 1491.</p>

<p>bisector everybody says 65. i don’t recall what i put, and would really like if somebody remembered the initial angles given.</p>

<p>omg … omg!!!</p>

<p>^I think thats all the free response then.</p>

<p>so 65 is right for angle bisector? and 1491 for tutition?</p>

<p>the angles given were 60, 50.</p>

<p>still can’t believe i messed up on the tuition one :D. That was one of the easiest questions on the test and it was “difficult”</p>

<p>wat was deltat = t-1/t+1 annndd it was like x=(deltaT)(5/2)</p>

<p>I did set them equal to each other. That’s what i’m saying though; I kept getting 4X=X for some reason.</p>

<p>What was the angle bisector one?
And why do people keep saying the curve is going to be harsh, yet a billion people are missing questions… If anything it should be lenient. I thought the Math was easy but it’s easy to see how you can miss a lot.</p>

<p>just plug in 5/2 for t, right?</p>

<p>so ((5/2)-1)/((5/2)+1)
= (3/2)/(7/2)
= 3/7</p>

<p>oh yea 3/7 thats all right</p>

<p>i juist know there were two 8s on the FR (anyone else get that)</p>

<p>also did anyone else get 140 on FR?</p>

<p>i got a really hard quetion but was it experiemental? it was the one with teh coloring schemes</p>

<p>i did that at first but i got different answers for t and i just plugged in 4-1/4+1
did (3/5)(5/2) and got (3/2) it was a grid in wasn’t it?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I have to agree with you that sucks, I had to set up the equation 4 times before I got the right answer, I got x=1 twice and I knew it didn’t make sense because the figure was drawn to scale.</p>
