October 2009 SAT II - Math Level 2

<p>I don’t remember the answer, but the number that gave you a whole number when multiplied by 5.4 was right. It also had to be <30 because there were only 3 judges.</p>

<p>"wat about the pt that lies outside the cirlce…the pt was (2,1)</p>

<p>(x-2)^2 + (y+1)^2=4</p>

<p>does that look familar "
I do remember that there was a 4 at the end of the answer. So, I’m guessing it was D.</p>

<p>was there a cylinder/ rectangle question on the math2</p>

<p>there were 5 judges. if u multiply 5.4 by 3 u dont get a whole number. whole numbers + wholenumbers dont give u a rational number. the next one was 5. and 5*5.4 and the other one gives u a “Whole number”</p>

<p>was the population one “C”? cause I guessed that
as for the roots I put 4… since it asked for f(x) and g(X) each with 2 distinct roots and f(x) COULD NOT equal g(x). (x-2)(x-3) = f(x) and (x+2)(x+3) = g(x) multiply them = 4 zeroes (thats how i did it at least…)</p>

<p>Yeah it was 5 judges, not 3; I remembered it wrong. But I do remember crossing off the last 2 answer choices because they were out of the range, though.</p>

<p>i also put 4 roots using the same logic and examples as you did… i’m not sure though if 4 is right</p>

<p>I got 4 only. I was debating on 4 only and the 2,3,4 choice.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember if 6 was a possible answer to the judges one? I was in a rush and I think I might have put 6 even though I solved for 5</p>

<p>yeah me too!!!</p>

<p>did the problem say ALL had distinct roots like… f(x) and g(x) cant have the same “root” like… f(x) = (x+3)(x-3) g(x) = (x+3)(x-5). If it didnt then the answer is 3 and 4. IF it DID then its 4… wat was the answer to the population (need the letter since I bubbled in C at the last second)</p>

<p>for the judges it HAS to be 5 since it asked for the least…</p>

<p>"Does anyone remember if 6 was a possible answer to the judges one? I was in a rush and I think I might have put 6 even though I solved for 5 "</p>

<p>The only ones that work are 5 and 15. </p>

<p>5 is less, so that is the answer. </p>

<p>What was the new york population question? I guessed 7 something but I think that might be wrong.</p>

<p>@b00
I know the correct answer is 5, but I am wondering if 6 was a choice because I can’t remember what I put</p>

<p>it asked uhm… 16.1 million increases at a 30% rate (0.3) over 25 years.
I did
16.1(1+0.3)^25… and the answer came out to be like 113400 or something and I couldnt make sense of it =/
The answer I circled was either 75% or 75.7%</p>

<p>48 pi for cylinder question???</p>

<p>No; it said EACH had distinct roots, and it also said f(x) =/= g(x), a clarification only necessary in the situation where f(x) and g(x) share at least one root. Therefore the answer most likely isn’t four. It’s probably 3,4 or 2,3,4.</p>

<p>@monstor its 3 or 4 then if its 2 then g(x) = f(x)</p>

<p>it said gx cannot equal fx for ATLEAST one value of x…
Doesn’t signify root…and it says ATLEAST</p>

<p>@boo, i think that is increase at .03%</p>

<p>I think it was 0.3% rather than 0.03%</p>

<p>I thought it was 3% o.O</p>

<p>a .3% growth would be 7.7% over 25 years. Was that even a choice?</p>
