Math Question Compilation for June 2008 SAT

<p>I had 435 also and the same as the previous poster for the 7/5/4/7/5/4 box. Did anyone get the question that had the volume of a box and you had to see how many 3x3x2 rectangles would fit in it?</p>

<p>Oh, the 56th one. I couldn't remember how to calculate it, so I did it on my calculator. -5 +8+8++8+8+8.....lol</p>

<p>Yeah, I put 5 for that one.</p>

<p>I also had 754754 and 435, for the volume question I had 5.</p>

<p>to cjones120</p>

<p>i got a.5</p>

<p>it was weird because it said it had a volume of 100 and a height of 11</p>

<p>i did 100/(3<em>2</em>3)=5.5555555</p>

<p>so u can only fit 5</p>

<p>"the answer to the 56th one was 435....i knew i had that right i checked over thrice"
^ Agreed!</p>

<p>I don't remember what number I put for the square overlapping one, but was it 1/4 of the area of the straight square?</p>

<p>i got 435 for the 56th one and i got 16 for the shaded area of square. </p>

<p>for 56th you just do -5+8*(n-1) where n is the nth term, (like first term n=1, second term n=2, so 56th term n=56).</p>

<p>the square thing was because the other shape was a square too it was a 90 degree angle (1/4 of 360) so i just got 1/4 of the area (since if it had been corner to corner it would have been 16 it was just rotated slightly). i figured if you could use partial areas like that for circles, why not for squares (assuming its 90 degrees though)</p>

<p>Oh yeah, the box one-- did you need the height?... I thought that was weird and I'm always paranoid when I don't use information.
I got five too; 100/18, yes?</p>

<p>Butternut:
All you do is -5 + 8(time 64 or whatever it was).</p>

<p>^Definitely five. </p>

<p>What's all this about a 56th question?</p>

<p>^^^^yeah Elanorci</p>

<p>i was also skeptical, because of that height=11 thing</p>

<p>u should have realized that the base of the rectangle had the same dimensions width and length as the smaller cubes. from there u were given the height of the small cubes were 2, and the height og the rectangle was 11. so u can fit 5.</p>

<p>I got the box wrong. I had no clue how to do it. I ended up doing 100/11 and got 9.1111 so i put 9 down. What score do you get if you miss 5 on the math section?</p>

<p>Yay, it was 5 then. the 56th one was a geometric sequence one. I knew the formula, but for some reason, I just said, screw it- I'll do it the hard way! Does anybody have the answer for the balloon question?</p>

<p>what else guys????help me remember</p>

<p>i know that i got every single one of them right, except for the 2 i skipped</p>

<p>But, there's only 54 questions in math. . . And you were counting? </p>

<p>. . . I'm missing something here.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>What was the question with the squares together and find the area between them? I guessed based on its size thinking I only had 1 MC wrong during the whole test so it would be worth to try my luck since -.5 doesn't round down(though I later figured out I got another one, so that sucks), but WAS IT 20?? I was trying to choose between 18 and 20. 16 was in the question so I viewed it as a trap. Seriously though it liked like some weird pentagon at first, but it was some distorted quadrilateral. If it was 20, it would make my day!</p></li>
<li><p>the one where you add the fractions that go from 5 to 45, that question definitely had me. I could have added them in my calculator, but it would take too much time. </p></li>
<li><p>Was the one where it asks for the 56th term, wasn't it -5+(55*8) since you already have the 1st term?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Godfatherbob</p>

<p>it was a question, which involved the 56th term of a sequence of numbers, and the answer was 435</p>

<p>It was a question, not the number of the question...lol</p>

<p>Was section 7 math experimental? The one where in the last question, you had to find the least number of colors to color the figure? Please say it was..</p>
