<p>i got square root of 30 for the last problem in one of the long math sections. did anyone else have this problem? it involved using the distance formula. </p>
<p>also does anyone have the answer for #8, the last of the non-grid-ins in the grid-in section.</p>
<p>do you remember
the 21st night of september
love was changing the mind of pretenders
while chasing the clouds away</p>
<p>nope i dont think so</p>
<p>yes, i had it, and yes the answer is square root of 30</p>
<p>good job :)</p>
<p>hey silver hammer, what's that song?</p>
<p>yep!
I had it and also put square root of 30!</p>
<p>yippe!</p>
<p>does anyone remember the exact question?</p>
<p>i didn't have that question o_O</p>
<p>odan it's "september" by earth, wind, & fire</p>
<p>and yeah anybody remember the question?</p>
<p>all i know is it was the very last question on one of the long math sections (i had two long math sections, one was experimental)</p>
<p>the question involved first finding the values of a point, and then using that and some other given point, find the distance between the points with the distance formula</p>
<p>You didn't have to use the distance formula tho... but yeah i put sqrt 30 as well...
was that the -2x+2 one? I found the area of the small triangle (the unshaded region) added that to make a big triangle then solved k using the triangle area formula</p>
<p>Was it the one about the parabola with y=-x^2+5? There was a line connecting the top of the parabola (0,5) to the positive x-intercept (root5,0), and the question asked for its length.</p>
<p>thanks a lot rhs. now i'm pretty sure i put sqrt 30.</p>
<p>it wasn't experimental. i had it but i had a writing exper.</p>
<p>sq rt 30 is correct btw.</p>
<p>I also had writing experimental.</p>
<p>Yeah, I remember that question now. And now I remember getting:</p>
<p>d = sqrt[ (5)^2 + (sqrt(5))^2 ] = sqrt[25 + 5]</p>
<p>So, yeah... sqrt[30] is also what I got.</p>
<p>Hm...I don't think I got that question. :S On my test, the long writing section was the experimental.</p>
<p>did anyone have the question that included a table with no. of consecutive nights spent at a hotel for each family or sth similar. total of 14 nights...blah..blah...n we had to find on which night one of the families was alone in the hotel!</p>
<p>i picked 3rd. anybody?</p>
<p>Hey, yeah, I got that question too! I put 10th originally, but at the final minute I was like "OMG *** THAT CAN'T BE TRUE", and erased my answer. Then the "pencils down" order came and we got a 5-minute break. Then I came back from the toilet and as the next section began, bubbled "A" for the 3rd night. :p</p>
<p>was one of the answers 4/9 to one of the grid-ins? i dunno but my friends say it was 5/9 :(</p>
<p>Yeah, I got 5/9 for that one. It was a probability question, right?</p>
<p>yea...i hope that was the only one i got wrong.</p>
