<p>No, I’m sure it was 0.03% increase.</p>
<p>Yes, 7.7% was a choice and that’s what i chose.</p>
<p>0.03% would lead to an answer of less than 1%.</p>
<p>0.03% increase of 16.1 million every year for 25 years wouldn’t be less than 1.</p>
<p>Well. . . that sucks. Just like on the practice tests, I made all sorts of stupid mistakes like not seeing the “.” in .3%</p>
<p>Oh well, didn’t answer two and I know I got three wrong for sure now, still might get an 800</p>
<p>maybe it was .3%…but im pretty sure it wasn’t 30% 
</p>
<p>my brain is dead for today :/</p>

<p>(1.0003)^25 = .7%</p>
<p>@ahage</p>
<p>I think I got it mixed up; It was 0.3%. My bad. That way, it would be 1.003^25, which is 1.077, and that multiplied by 16.1 would give you the answer.</p>
<p>i’m pretty sure the question ask 3%</p>
<p>im almost positive it was .3%</p>
<p>as you may have read earlier, i mistook the .3% for .3 which would be 30% >:(</p>

<p>For that question, it didn’t state they had distinct roots, only that f(x) doesn’t equal g(x) at at least one x.
Thus I reasoned you can have two (f(x)=(x+1)(x-1), g(x) = 2(x+1)(x-1)), three, and four roots.</p>
<p>NUMBER 50</p>
<p>Can the last question with the cone be explained?</p>
<p>The cone question is somewhere in this thread; browse through the pages and you’ll find it.</p>
<p>my kid said they only answered 36 questions, where does that leave her?</p>
<p>Well, according to Barron’s book, assuming she got all 36 questions correct, then her approximate score would be : 800 - (44-36)10, so around 720.</p>
<p>According to the Blue Book (made by CollegeBoard), that puts her at a 680. Since she got 14 wrong, it’s -3.5, so 50-14-3.5. But you have to remember, that’s assuming she got nothing else wrong.</p>
<p>did anybody get a few d’s at the end?</p>
<p>This one was almost as hard as the Barron’s practice tests. I thought the blue book was indicative of the actual difficulty?</p>
<p>Me too, but this one turned out to be brutal.</p>
