Test Preparation
281

<p>mjnets - I had that one. I'm pretty sure it was 315.</p>

<p>(The question was, what is the maximum value of a rectangular box that has one area of a side as 45 and the other area of a side as 75?)</p>

<p>Since the two sides could have shared a side, they had to have a common factor, and the two that work are 5 and 15. With 5 as one length, the other lengths of the cube have to be 9 and 7. With 15 as a length, the other sides have to be 3 and 5. However, 5 x 9 x 7 = 315, and 15 x 3 x 5 = 225. Um, for some reason, I remember putting down 675, even though this was exactly my reasoning during the test. What the f :(</p>

282

<p>i dont remember puttnig 3/5 at all, and what was 7 an answer to?</p>

283

<p>still wondering about the 3/5 fill in</p>

284

<p>Lol oops...</p>

<p>so what was the question to the 3/5 grid in?</p>

285

<p>Can someone confirm the exact wording of the x^(3/2), i am not sure what i put/why</p>

286

<p>i definately put 7</p>

287

<p>no, seriously, someone remind me of the 3/5 question.</p>

288

<p>k going through my calc history...</p>

<p>36 kids on bus..
sqrt34 was an answer i think
2r was an answer</p>

289

<p>thats all tru</p>

290

<p>i forget the 3/5 question.. i put either that or 3/4 for a grid in though im pretty sure</p>

<p>and what was the question for an answer of 7 on the grid in?</p>

291

<p>7 or 3/5??</p>

292

<p>i disagree, t was 2r and it asked for the ration between the two so it was 1/2</p>

293

<p>different question, dcl</p>

294

<p>I put 3/4 for the grid in. It had a rectangle and two unshaded triangles and it ask how much of the rectangle was shaded.</p>

295

<p>i apologize, but the question with (r "square" s) "square" t the answer happend to be 2r</p>

296

<p>oh thanks mije- i thought that was a mult choice.</p>

<p>what about the answer of 7?</p>

297

<p>oh my bad, youre right</p>

298

<p>does anyone remember the kids on the bus question?</p>

299

<p>the maudlin was the memoir was considered maudlin because the girl sensationalized it so much ...well it didnt say sensationalized it said like she had high sentimental... i dunno something along those lines</p>

<p>the bus question umm was 36 if i remember right...yeh it was 36 14 were left after 10 got off...right before that 25 percent got off...and then 4 got off at first
so it was 36 minus 4 is 32 minus 8 is 24 minus 10 is 14...</p>

300
