<p>ok, was the question where it said some guy could buy n things at n dollars each and instead buys 14 things at n dollars each and it cost 72 dollars less. what was n? was that experimental?</p>

942

<p>^experimental</p>

943

<p>can someone remind me what the 72 degrees question was? was it fill in? elaborate?</p>

944

<p>It was grid-in.</p>

945

<p>It was a triangle, with angles x and y and 60. (well, technically z, which became 60)</p>

<p>if x is 2/3y, what is y?</p>

946

<p>Cribelle: I was trying to remember how that question went as well. I had that but it could’ve been experimental.
^
Wasn’t it like two angles and then the answer was that the lines were parallel or something? :/</p>

947

<p>^ right, that was it</p>

948

<p>Exterior was 120, not 140.</p>

949

<p>what was the question like?</p>

950

<p>ok thanks! how many fill ins are we missing on the list?</p>

951

<p>yes i made a mistake. exterior was 120, interior was 60, other two angles add up to 120; one angle is two-thirds the other. they ask for the larger angle; 72+48 = 120; 48= (2/3)*72</p>

952

<p>

</p>

<p>does “48/54” at the top mean that we are missing 6 questions?</p>

953

<p>So nobody remembers one with six angles (each had a different variable assigned to it) formed by three intersecting lines… and each answer choice gave a different pair of angles? any idea guys?</p>

954

<p>

no i dont remember that</p>

955

<p>^ I don’t remember it either. I think it must have been experimental. (I had an experimental CR section.)</p>

956

<p>Alright, I had experimental CR section as well though… I’m starting to think it was on a practice test that I did for the March sat (since I didn’t prep for this one)… So I’ll try not to worry about it anymore.</p>

957

<p>What BEACH question was on the SAT? I don’t remember any beach math question, and I KNOW I had experimental CR.</p>

958

<p>anyone know how many fill-ins we are missing? if any?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>beach question had a chart with beach balls in it i think</p>

959

<p>The small beach balls represented 10 kids and the large ones represented 20 adults… They asked which one represented twice as many adults as kids… Choice C I think had 4 of each so that meant there were 40 kids and 80 adults.</p>

960

<p>UPDATE: Aaghh I just dug up my blue book in my room and that vertical angle problem was from a practice test I took way back when… .SOOOOOOO SORRY ABOUT THAT GUYS!! XD Hope this relieves anyone who thought that they had missed this…</p>
