May 2013 SAT Discussion Thread

<p>The answer is 4</p>

<p>5 10 25 and 50.</p>

<p>2 does not work because it is <3</p>

<p>Got this one wrong, oh well.</p>

<p>I got 4 - 50, 25, 10, and 5. </p>

<p>When 53 was divided by these, the remainder was always 3. </p>

<p>2 and 1 didn’t work because the remainders both weren’t three, despite both being factors of 50.</p>

<p>anyone remember any of the vocab qs? One question was that someone was ____: she continued on with the plan even though she knew that there were faults (?). One of the options was diffident. </p>

<p>Anyone remember the answer?</p>

<p>what’s the one for putting table together and finding the maximum people?</p>

<p>that one is obduracy</p>

<p>The table one was 12 6-people and 12 4-people tables. I think it was like 120 people or something like that.</p>

<p>For those who got two grid in sections, what was your initial reaction? Haha I was utterly shocked when I saw it and muttered ***? under my breath.</p>

<p>Anybody remember the one with the perimeter of the figure. They gave you the value of the perimeter of a hexagon and then asked you to figure out the perimeter of an outlined figure. Also what was the answer to one of the last 3 ones on the “real” grid in math section. It involved finding some value and involved a bunch of triangles. I’m sorry I’m not being real specific hear but I just don’t remember it that much. Anyone lol?</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the answer to the Emily Dickinson vocab question?</p>

<p>Anyone remember the main contrast in the passage about the city vs suburbs?</p>

<p>@cicit123 I believe it is 120. You have 36 tables. You have equal amounts of “table assortments” This means you get 12 4 people tables and 12 6 people tables (the two 6 people tables were created from 24 original tables). 12x6 = 72. 12x4 = 48. Add the two and you have a maximum of 120 people.</p>

<p>@Dixie - I think the perimeter in the hexagon question was 96. It came out to be 16 x 6 I believe, but I could be wrong.</p>

<p>@cicit123 i put down 126 because it said the amount of 4-people to 6-people table configurations were the same. So a total of 36 tables would lead to 18 for each group and since the 6-people groups had to have two tables each, the 6-people group had 9 and the 4 people group had 18. So (9<em>6)+(4</em>18)= 126. That’s what I got but i can be wrong</p>

<p>How do you differentiate which section was experimental in your test?</p>

<p>@dixienormus answer was 96 almost positive</p>

<p>@Dreamer1623 I put down security vs…something. Dunno if it was right.</p>

<p>Its 12 for each group.</p>

<p>the 6 person tables use 2 4 person tables</p>

<p>x+2x= 36 x=12</p>

<p>(12x6)+ (12x4)= 120</p>

<p>@thexvariable unnerving, it is a synonym of disquieting
@Dreamer1623: I remember something with stability</p>

<p>@Dreamer1623 I think I put excitement… stability</p>

<p>@cicit123 I also got 126. I don’t remember my reasoning but it seemed correct at the time.</p>

<p>I put down 120 for the table question but it was blatantly an answer out of desperation.</p>
