<p>what was the answer to the graph question with the 2 test scores? was it 1/5, simplified from 4/20?</p>
<p>@Seniors2102 I believe it was 24/5.
@tenisgirl3232 It was 1/2.</p>
<p>why was it 1/2? does anyone remember the question?</p>
<p>Guys, if I may chime in on the “If x=2 when y=3” Math problem: Had the problem stated “y=3 when x=2”, then that would justify that x would not be equal to 2 when y=6. Because the problem states that x=2 when y=3, it does not cancel out the possibility of x equaling 3 when y=6. The answer was “none”. Sorry for those of you who put III (it was a pretty difficult question and I struggled with it as well). I actually thought this may have been the most confusing question on the test and I think I have a damn good shot at 800 in Math!</p>
<p>I believe we’re talking about different problems, fastsauce.</p>
<p>The “I, II, III” one on test A had to do with x(symbol)y=x+y-xy</p>
<p>The problem you’re talking about doesn’t seem familiar.</p>
<p>mirinjobrah, do you remember the answer options, and if it was three only or not? And did it have any restrictions (e.g x > 0 or something)</p>
<p>Also, there was a student produced response question that had to do with finding the average and it was 27 but I put 27.1 because that worked too. I hope someone remembers what I’m talking about!</p>
<p>^ i put 28 , that worked as well</p>
<p>Right. But I’m just asking if a non integer value was okay.</p>
<p>@Fastsauce I would agree with you if I was sure that was how the problem read (An if/when statement). However, I believe people are saying it was in fact an if/then statement. This is a dramatic difference and is essential to properly solving the problem… Does anyone definitively remember the exact phrasing of the question?</p>
<p>Im positive the question you guys are referring to said: if x is 2 then y is 3</p>
<p>Also does anyone remeber the answer to the question that was about 25 numbers in a set, with mode median and mean being 15 and range being 2? It was asking what is the maximum number of 14’s that can be in the set i think</p>
<p>I have seen “if x=2, then y=3” in enough places to be pretty convinced that is the correct phrasing. This means that the answer is III only. This is obvious not only because it essentially asks for the contrapositive, but also because if x could equal 2 at other values of y they would have had to have listed those values in the original conditional statement.</p>
<p>was this y=2 x=3 question only on test B (tectonic)</p>
<p>Damn, if it is an “if then” question, I see your point. I read it as “if when” though… Either way, that is just a bad question. It does not test what the SAT math intends to test. Not to go on too much of a rant, but the SAT math largely doesn’t test math knowledge, but instead ability to recognize minute details in the questions. Most of the questions that I, and others that I have asked, miss are because we missed something in the question. The SAT Math needs more questions that are difficult based on required mathematical knowledge instead of extremely close reading.</p>
