November 2008 SAT Math

<p>I agree with the multiples of 2..</p>

<p>its 5^3 to 9^3 so 5 in total.</p>

<p>its multiples of 8, in the set of multiples of 4 under 1000, we assume 8,12,16,20,24,28,32.... and in this set all multiples of 2 arent in it such as 6, 10, 14, 18,22 etc. etc, however every single multiple of 8 isnt missed, such as 8, 16,24, 32, checkmate.</p>

<p>It's multiples of 8, b/c not all multiples of 2 are multiples of 4.</p>

<p>it said ALL multiples of 2 or 8,and because ALL of 2 isnt incorporated into the set of multiples of 4, you are wrong, an idiot cud figure this out</p>

<p>I got multiples of 8 as well</p>

<p>Lol, okay. I disagree.</p>

<p>i understand what you are saying but it was which wud be included in set Z, not which contains set z</p>

<p>kk one could be 0
here's why
line had slope 1
other line could have ben -x and the problem never stated y<-x or y>-x and thereby it is possible for the line to shade the region above it. slope of -1 + 1 = 0</p>

<p>How about the question with vowels and consonants alternating to make a code. How many possible codes?</p>

<p>I put 8.</p>

<p>Agree? Disagree?</p>

<p>No it did say which one would have all the numbers of set Z.
So therefore all of set Z would be included into multiples of 2, but not multiples of 8.</p>

<p>oh, what was that one about the highest answer possible for the equation one? Was it 48?</p>

<p>no that cudnt work because there was another choice i don't recall that wud fit the interpretation of the question like u described</p>

<p>"other line could have ben -x and the problem never stated y<-x or y>-x and thereby it is possible for the line to shade the region above it. slope of -1 + 1 = 0"</p>

<p>Did you look at the picture? The shaded region was between the x-axis and line M, thus a slope of -x is not an option.</p>

<p>And the question was indeed, "which contains set Z". Read more closely next time.</p>

<p>yes 48...............</p>

<p>most kids ive asked in school say which is included in set Z, i actually have friends that confer with me before i stubbornly think i must be correct, :)</p>

<p>Yes, you would never do something so stubborn.</p>

<p>i know, i would'nt . . .thanks for agreeing</p>

<p>lol i think the set answer was 2 but it was another of the tricky, poorly worded math questions on the test. of course, we all know ETS cant write a well worded question anyhow. </p>

<p>Did every single number in the set HAVE to be a multiple of 4, is the main problem that the question didnt address.</p>

<p>no the question I carefully remember stated which "include the shaded region of line m" line y>-x would INCLUDE the shaded region of line m</p>
