May 2010 Math SAT Thread

<p>@Shah - x=2</p>

<p>**** carless mistake :confused: lol</p>

<p>Whats the odds question??? I dont remember seeing that…</p>

<p>also, the answer was 42.</p>

<p>np…
it was like the first positive 101 integers… find the median… how to do this sequence… i guessed wrong ;(</p>

<p>could someone explain the question for future reference?</p>

<p>The x=2 one.</p>

<p>if they didnt accept 7.80, that would be complete bs.</p>

<p>How were u supposed to do the last question (#8) just before the grid in? It asked for the lowest value.</p>

<p>@ shah</p>

<p>"
2x + 2y + 2z = 36</p>

<p>2+ y + z = 18</p>

<p>What does x equal?
"</p>

<p>The only way it worked was if y and z each equaled 8. Which left x=2. I don’t think I did formal equations/math. Mostly plugged in until I found what worked.</p>

<p>i just multiplied whole entire bottom by 2 since 18(2)= 36 …
then i said that 2x would equal 4… x=2</p>

<p>Anyone remember the question with the bowling score average where the girl had y as her average score and what the 11th game would have to be to increase it by 2 points?</p>

<p>^ it was experimental.</p>

<p>any prediction of curve? what would one wrong yield?</p>

<ul>
<li>The SHOWER question, with what’s the 65th letter was “E”</li>
<li>what is h(10) was 102</li>
<li>area of small circle was 4pi</li>
<li>cookie boxes was 750-150w</li>
<li>median of car/gas was 26</li>
<li>amplitude/temp was t=-7x+13</li>
<li>area of figure was 105</li>
<li>length of EC was 8</li>
</ul>

<p>can anyone add to the list?</p>

<p>For the 8521 question, can anyone please confirm that they remember it being the maximum number and not the minimum? I thought it was maximum but now I’m not so sure… I’m getting worrieddd.</p>

<p>Can anyone answer this???</p>

<p>How were u supposed to do the last question (#8) just before the grid in? It asked for the lowest value.</p>

<p>I plugged in all the numbers and got B. What did I do wrong?</p>

<p>what was the anwser for median one with graph??
was 26 D??
i can’t remeber the number… i just put D</p>

<p>@nnryannnn</p>

<p>26 for the median was choice A</p>

<p>two digits cannot be the same !</p>

<p>how did you find 26 avg mpg? I ran out of time and I skipped that one.</p>

<p>i missed the median one again…
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME???</p>
