October 2009 SAT Math

<p>If x<y and r<s then,</p>

<p>I. x + r < y + s
II. x - r < y - s
III. xr < ys</p>

<p>What is the answer to this?</p>

<p>who remembers the question about the pie chart thingy with a bird or so? i just figured i might have read the question wrongly :frowning: did it say number that are not birds or number that are birds? post the answer if u know it.THX</p>

<p>tristam the answer to that question was all of them(I,II,III)</p>

<p>No dkay, you must consider negative numbers. Also, Just to make sure. If someone was to say “take the square of x” they would mean the square root right?</p>

<p>Only I ^ koken911 is right. </p>

<p>Plug in -3, -4, -5, -6 for the respective values and you’ll know why!</p>

<p>hey i took the SAT yesterday and i wanna know if any one remembers the question in the grid in about the diagonals ? if yes plz tell me the question and the answer</p>

<p>no,i dnt think so,square of a number is like x^2 not root of x</p>

<p>even if im wrong im pretty sure its gonna be I and II.Just found out III was wrong,but do u remember the pie chart question?? cos im kinda anxious:if i messed up bcos of a readin mistake ild b so p i s s ed</p>

<p>I thought it was used like: “Find the square of x” —> x^(1/2) or “Find x squared”—>x^2
I always get confused on squares…</p>

<p>oops,sorry.hopes u got it this time :wink: square of x or x squared is x^2 and square root of x=x^1/2</p>

<p>someone please the pie chart question@!!! answer/question pls</p>

<p>**** -_-…</p>

<p>why is not the reminder 3???</p>

<p>=(</p>

<p>At dkay: The answer to the bird question is 1800. Question was how many animals were NOT birds. There were 2000 animals in total, and 10% were birds. Leaving 90% NOT birds = 1800</p>

<p>Hope i remembered the details correctly.</p>

<p>dkaycoolnerd, the answer was 1800 and thats the # of everything - birds…</p>

<p>Sorry if u thought they wanted the # of birds… this happens to me all the time =\ and it really KILLS me when i do it ="(… hard luck</p>

<p>Does any one remember the question that had 2, radical 2, ? ? ? I think I chose 2 on it…</p>

<p>about the x<y ans r<s</p>

<p>x+r<y+s right
x-r<y-s wrong
xr<ys wrong</p>

<p>Definitely sure</p>

<p>For what fraction of the time did the girl bike uphill and then downhill, at 4 mph and 2 mph?</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the question?</p>

<p>I remember that i got 6/7 for the question</p>

<p>…a lot fo people are saying they got 4/7</p>

<p>6/7 was for the 3 circles one</p>
