<p>i think i saw something similar to that area of rectangles in barrons/PR..</p>

<p>I just learned how to solve the rectangle problems in class last week....just in time for the sats.</p>

<p>"i think i saw something similar to that area of rectangles in barrons/PR.."</p>

<p>Me too, just yesterday, though barrons said to find area of "triangles" instead of "rectangles" which completely threw me off. If the answer is 21 like people are saying, then I got it wrong. I put 15.5 I think.</p>

<p>We've been doing word problems in calc all this week! I should have done better!</p>

<p>lol.. adore lucky u!!!</p>

<p>"also some other statistic question abut adding numbers in a list.. is that 5??"</p>

<p>which one was that....i dont remember</p>

<p>can anyone post somethinga bout the normal curve... like how much would a raw score of 38/39 be..?</p>

<p>I got 5 and 5. It was the one about what number should you add to make the mode and median the same.</p>

<p>"We've been doing word problems in calc all this week! I should have done better!"</p>

<p>We just started application of derivatives. Lots of word problems, but didn't see anything similar to what's on the test.</p>

<p>blah the question was about adding numbers to a list so that the list has the same median and same mode..</p>

<p>"like how much would a raw score of 38/39 be..?"</p>

<p>750-760 area, based on sparknotes.</p>

<p>"I got 5 and 5. It was the one about what number should you add to make the mode and median the same."</p>

<p>Yup, it was 5 and 5.</p>

<p>well u cud u use derivatives to find min/max of a function. personally found that very useful..</p>

<p>How do I go about finding the 0s of "-3 cos x -10 sin 5x -[cos x cos 5x - 5 sin x sin 5x]"? sans calculatrice graphique, svp.</p>

<p>"How do I go about finding the 0s of "-3 cos x -10 cos 5x -[cos x cos 5x - 5 sin x sin 5x]"?"</p>

<p>I think I graphed it and found the zeroes.</p>

<p>That doesn't do me any good, alas. This is the derivitive, but finding the critical points seems nigh impossible</p>

<p>EDIT: Bah! Newton's method would've worked (would've been laborious)!!!!!God dammit!</p>

<p>EDIT2: Hmm...I wouldn't have been able to do this anyway (too many zeros).</p>

<p>there must b a way but sadly i dunno it!!</p>

<p>I scored 600 last time, and this time i honestly don't think I did any better. In fact, I'm fairly certain I scored lower. I had a difficult time with this test.. I skipped 7 and probably got like 12+ wrong. I'm expecting a raw score of 25-28, which is going to give me somewhere around or below 600 (I think). Sounds like the test was pretty hard for most people I've talked to though.</p>

<p>I'm really worried about my SAT II scores and their effect on my applications...</p>

<p>I agree, cities one was 2.3 or something like that</p>

<p>What did you guys put on the question where f(x) didn't share any points with |f(x)|?</p>

<p>^ f(x )is symmetric for the x axis?</p>
