October 2010 ACT Math Thread

<p>Yeah linger, just makin sure. i got it right then i believe</p>

<p>yeah i agree some of these questions were badly phrased imo.
hopefully a lenient curve?</p>

<p>Yep, amp was 3 period was pi.</p>

<p>@fisawalab</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter. You just need to have the same things in the same position when you compare different sides or angles.</p>

<p>what was the answer of the x^a times y^a</p>

<p>i think that was an answer</p>

<p>(xy)^a 10char</p>

<p>wasnt it question (xy)^a…and that becomes x^a * y^a</p>

<p>@collegefor (xy)^a</p>

<p>^i put A I think it was (xy)^a. Idk I plugged in numbers.</p>

<p>stupid mistake on my part, also what was the answer to the one where it showed the graph of a 4th power polynomial?</p>

<p>wasnt there one where it was like 25% of oringinal number and then 20% of that one and the final answer was 100% of the original?</p>

<p>i dont remember that question at all Linger…</p>

<p>@linger i rember 20% of something something but thats it lol
The 4th poly one was all the places where the slope was positive</p>

<p>yeah the very first question was like 20% of 16 or something it was like 3. something. the last answer choice, i think</p>

<p>yeah 20% of 16 = $3.20?</p>

<p>always sucks to get first question wrong lol - luckily i got it this time</p>

<p>so are we agreeing it was 14 cans of paint? since it was 2 coats? so glad i read that a second time.</p>

<p>It was sin/ side= looked it up on google just now</p>

<p>tothetop: it doesnt matter which way you do it because its a ratio so long as you keep it consistent throughout.</p>

<p>Did u guys get 8sin11/sin24?</p>

<p>Yep, I got 80sin11/sin24</p>

<p>wait why wasn’t it 80sin110/sin24??? i thought the angle was 110, or was that not even an option? maybe i just remember it wrong…</p>
