May SAT 2011: Math Section

<p>There was the compactness of a rectangle problem. I forget what I said but I know I got it right.</p>

<p>I was sure I did well on this section (only skipped the coffee problem) but now I’m realizing I missed at least 3. :frowning:
Out of curiosity, about what would my score be with three missed and one omitted?</p>

<p>was that the one with like (l+w)/(l^2)(w^2) or something like that? does anyone remember something with the answer 20</p>

<p>SOOOoooooo what is it 165 or 365, was it consecutive?</p>

<p>wouldn’t that be only 6 values for the 3 integer one for values over 500? and keep the list going!</p>

<p>does anyone know which one is the math experimental? was this part of a real section. it was a triangle cut into two triangles. and u had to find the angle, X.</p>

<p>did you guys get -8 for k when it was like 2x^2+4x+k, and there could only be one answer?</p>

<p>etennis12 I am waiting to find out also but nobody new is weighing in on the issue so its hard to tell…</p>

<p>that wasn’t experimental, that’s the one im trying to get the answer to. i put 20 i think</p>

<p>that question wasn’t consecutive…</p>

<p>^concretepencil: I had that too; not sure if it was experimental or not. y was like 40, one of the angles was a right angle, and two sides of one of the triangles was congruent? x was 10.</p>

<p>@NspiredOne 867 837 876 873 836 863 there is 6 for just the number 8 if you swap it with 7 and 6 there are the same amount of combinations. 6*3 is 18. I put 24 because im stupid I multiplied it by 4. but the answer is 18</p>

<p>^ oo thanks. so u had the math experimental too</p>

<p>Someone explain a^3/2?</p>

<p>Your explanation would also apply to a^2 and a^3</p>

<p>a^3/2
because V is x^3
and A is x^2</p>

<p>just plug in a number. say x=3. V= 27
A= 9
9^1.5= 27</p>

<p>was that a MC or a free response? OMG I CAN"T BELIEVE IT OMG OMG OMG ■■!</p>

I got these answers from a friend can you guys help me match the answers to the questions?</p>

<p>The prime one definately wasn’t consecutive. I got 5,7,11 first, then reread the question and realized it wasn’t; checked whether a three worked anywhere…and there you have it.</p>

<p>India ?! I thought it looked more like bangladesh</p>

<p>Surface area is 6a^2 though…</p>
