March SAT Math Thread

<p>@kamikaze. It was something alone the lines of, the shape has a volume of 90 and the sides are 2, 3x and x I believe. So you have 6x^2 = 90 and x = sqr(15). </p>

<p>Ok I think there’s some confusion about the two questions where one is smallest:xy and the other involves (y-x)^2</p>

<p>Can we clarify what the questions were for each of these problems?</p>

<p>What did you get for the question with the circles?</p>

<p>was the root 15 question experimental?</p>

<p>Does anyone remember if 15 was an answer choice though?</p>

<p>What about the question about students in a class taking either physics, chemistry, both or neither? Did people get 4?</p>

<p>anyone remember the question with a circle with a given degree (130ish i think) and you had to find the ratios of the circumference x to y? </p>

<p>also on the same section was the regular pentagon and you had to find the number of intersections made by another pentagon and circle in the same plane?</p>

<p>i hope these were experimental!</p>

<p>^ What was the question for x = 1520?</p>

<p>Also, I believe the similar triangle perimeters question was experimental (with x=9). It was in the experimental grid in section with the area of the triangle as #8. Another experimental question in that section was what value of k makes an equation y = kx… impossible.</p>

<p>Physics/Chemistry Question was experimental and Kamikaze I believe 15 was a choice and I got it wrong. Today’s not my day. I have 2 more years to do better though. :D</p>

<p>Pentagon Question was experimental so the other one is too I guess?</p>

<p>@ 99college that was experimental</p>

<p>x = 1520 was something like</p>

<p>3<em>5</em>7 = (20 + x/8)/2</p>

<p>sounds experimental</p>

<p>51.75 RAW so far…</p>

<p>I had no exp math sections</p>

<p>i had a question with a pentagon </p>

<p>the answer was 110 i think</p>

<p>how do you get .75?
I didn’t have a pentagon problem as I’ve said 6 times. <_<</p>

<p>you forgot the 15n miles joggers one!</p>

<p>for one of the 25 minute math ones, the last question was 2 triangles and you needed to find the length of a particular segment. is this experimental?</p>

<p>Eeeek. There goes my 800 to 770 for misreading the question as 3 rather than 3x, and then choosing 15 as the answer.</p>

<p>For integers x and y</p>

<p>Which of the following MUST be positive?</p>

<p>I. x^2 - y^2
II. (y-x)^2 or maybe it was (x-y)^2
III. Something.</p>

<p>My answer was II only. Does anybody remember choice III?</p>

<p>Also, does anyone remember a question with an equilateral triangle being bisected? All i remember is that the answer was 30 degrees.</p>

<p>@Matt</p>

<p>u didnt have the question about the consecutive numbers as angles in a pentagon?</p>

<p>Was it
I. x^2 - y^2
II. x + y
III. (x-y)^2
??</p>

<p>I might be confusing it with another question idk. Sound familiar to anyone?</p>
