June 4 2011 SAT Reasoning Post-Test Discussion

<p>@freshpakiprince - the question was what does “subject” mean and the answer was “agent”</p>

<p>i don’t remember a “raise” answer for this passage. but i do remember putting “raise” for one the spot the error questions in writing.</p>

<p>Are there different experimental sections? I know I got a CR experimental, but I remember nothing about a writer’s block… I had one with like television and reading and thinking skills??</p>

<p>Does anyone know which of the two 25 min non-grid-ins was a math experimental. In one, the inscribed triangle question with radii 6 and 8. In another, there was a question on a isosceles triangle on a coordinate plane with angle answers like 72 degrees, and 32 degrees, and others like that.</p>

<p>The section with the “quindadinc” question was experimental in math</p>

<p>Also, what did everyone get for the triangles inscribed in circles one?</p>

<p>^ the one where you had to find the length of RS? i got 4 i think?</p>

<p>Could you elaborate on “quindadinc”? Which one was that?</p>

<p>imagine a quincadinc represents a four digit number in which after the thousands’ place the numbers are larger than the previous</p>

<p>for example: 3479 is a quincadinc</p>

<p>what is the largest quincadinc less than 5000
i put 4789 but I’m positive that was experimental</p>

<p>Raise was a choice with the bees advancing something. Pretty sure it was wrong</p>

<p>Was the spot the error in the writing section about that guy who had to do with the awareness of global warming a no error ?</p>

<p>I had a math experimental, but I didnt have this quadaqinc problem?</p>

<p>The Triangle One, the hypotenuse is 10. So the 3 line segments that make up the hypotenuse must add up to 10. Let’s call the segments QR, RS, ST, where QS (which = QR + ST) is the radius of the circle that = 6, and RT (which = RS + ST) is the radius of the circle that = 8 QR+RS+ST = 10. QR + RS = 6. ST + RS = 8. From these 3 equations we can solve, and it turns out that QR = 2, ST= 4, and RS = 4.</p>

<p>I had two grid-in math sections…so one must be experimental right?</p>

<p>@FyodorMend67 -</p>

<p>the answer is 4. There is no warrant as to why you would add 6 and 8 together to get 10=14-2x. </p>

<p>I got my answer by finding the part of the hypotenuse that was not overlapping.
10-8 =2
10-6 =4</p>

<p>Thus, since 6 is the measure of the part not overlapping, the answer is 10-6=4</p>

<p>Could anyone please enlighten me about the question for which the answer was 5.5 or 11/2. I can’t seem to remember it…</p>

<p>I also had math experimental, but no quincadincs :?</p>

<p>What was the one with the graph of the function and the abs. value of the function? That was the only one that I didn’t answer for the math ;.;</p>

<p>The answer was B (0,-3) I think?</p>

<p>Really? I didn’t think any of the answers worked, because all of the ones that were on the original graph were also on the abs. value graph, and there were ones that were on neither. Or maybe I misread it?</p>

<p>I don’t think it was B…i don’t think B was on the graph
it was the other one with the negative y coordinate though</p>

<p>Wait for this one we had to flip across the x, then it asked us for the abs value right? So then, only 0,-3 woudnt work… I think this is the same problem… Anyone?</p>
