<p>usta90: the question was find the difference between the 40th and 28th term of the sequence: 1, 4, 7, 10....</p>
<p>yeah basically it's +2 for every next term... starting with 1 as the first term??</p>
<p>plug this into graph calculator... go to table</p>
<p>y = 2(x-1) + a (where a is first term)</p>
<p>y(40) - y(20) = answer</p>
<p>the answer is 36 i believe</p>
<p>Guys come on. There's 3 between each step and 12 steps. 3 x 12 =36</p>
<p>You don't need to use functions. ;)</p>
<p>thanks for the refresher</p>
<p>or.
40th term and 28th term
use the formula of common difference
a1 + (n-1)D
so thats
1 + (40-1)(3) = 118
1 + (28-1)(3) = 82
118 - 82 = 36
HAHAHA</p>
<p>lol yeah thanks jumpman... hahahaha that was kinda silly of me</p>
<p>Since I haven't asked, what is my predicted score?</p>
<p>Math -0
Writing -2 with 11/12 on the essay (I thought my essay was killer; I even mentioned how my grandpa won the Nobel prize in physics. However I only had two examples, the other explaining the significances of Spartan culture. I quoted Kierkegaard in my intro and that might also be a plus.
Verbal -4 </p>
<p>Oh, my prompt was something along the lines of "evaluate the conformity of humans to societal standards"</p>
<ol>
<li>Spartan culture did not conform to the typical merchant/artistic cultures of other Greek city states during the Hellenic Age but their individualism ended up helping the whole nation when Xerxes invaded. (sounds like a dumb example I know but I tried to make it significant)
2.grandpa's eccentricities= physics obsession=own way of problem solving=Nobel prize</li>
</ol>
<p>this might have been an easy question but i'm a little worried about it... in the math section there was a problem which had piecewise graph of parking prices and it asked to find the total price for certain amounts of hours... does anyone remember the answer?</p>
<p>ohh yeah.. i dont remember the answer.. i think it was like D or something.. what was it (for the parking prices)</p>
<p>btw i used the prices of where the dot was filled in, right..</p>
<p>yea if it is filled in then you use that price. The answer was either D or E, it was one of the bottom answers</p>
<p>what was the answer to the sentence completion question that said the "the only _____ in the harsh desert was some rock stick out" question?</p>
<p>also did anyone have florid for an answer for the one with the painter... a lot of people said idosyncratic but it didn't really seem to fit</p>
<p>paul that was relief.</p>
<p>wbapwo.. i dont think it was florid. i put some really dumb answer, i didnt know what the word meant. it was something with a p, can someone remember what it was so i can look it up and know for future reference?</p>
<p>wow. im really addicted to this subsection of this forum.. i have ap bio and ap stat and precalc homework to do...and its 11pm. hahaha</p>

*<strong><em>!!!!! I WAS GOING TO PUT THAT DOWN, BUT I CHANGED IT TO REGULARITY!!!! *</em></strong>!!!!!</p>
<p>yea it was plangent, which means loud or resounding
that coulnd't have been the answer</p>
<p>the answer was idiosyncratic. The words in the SC were actually not hard, but the way the words are used in the sentence was really tricky and weird like relief. I usually get 100% right on SC, I think I already got 2 wrong this time...</p>
<p>can anyone reproduce that sentence</p>
<p>the key word for that sc was eccentric... I think it was about the painter's techniques were so eccentric.. then others call it ____</p>
<p>it's gotta be idiosyncratic</p>
