October 2010 Math SAT Thread

<p>^Thanks!</p>

<p>Which question was 4500 dollars? This calms my fears that I put 4500 for the grid-in when it appears I did both correctly</p>

<p>-1 will probably not be 800 but is there a slight chance that 1 skip might be 800?</p>

<p>Wags the Dog: PR=8 was a problem about the radii of two circles. I don’t remember having the 1/b problem, so I think it was experiemental.</p>

<p>i got that problem too. the x<y</p>

<p>Oh I also have to second the question of someone else: what problem was 4500 dollars?</p>

<p>Wags: A Pie Graph Problem involving converting a percentage into its magnitude.</p>

<p>Cany anyone tell me if 11-x-y was an answer choice A to the problem for which 11-4x-y was the answer? Or was 11-4x-y choice A?</p>

<p>^ the right answer was like choice c, somewhere in the middle.</p>

<p>stiglits- pretty sure 11-4x-y was choice B</p>

<p>I have one major issue with the consolidated list. The list includes the answer of 1080 as a grid in, when it was really a mc. I think we still need to determine the final grid in answer. On another list, I saw 3 as a grid in answer. IDK if that was an MC or not but I know that the question the answer is referring to is the one with the ration of 2:3 using positive integers between one and 10.</p>

<p>wasn’t 1080 the one about the girl doing hw/wk in HS? </p>

<p>Also, what is the question for m=2? Can anyone post the question? I seriously can’t remember at all.</p>

<p>no it was a multiple choice.</p>

<p>1080 was a MC. so was the ratio one</p>

<p>I remember the numbers in the table: 5, 6.75, 9.5, and 8.75 hours PER SCHOOL WEEK for the 1080 question. just multiply each by 36 and add and you 1080.</p>

<p>overrated so u agree we still missin a gird in right?</p>

<p>@viggy, m=2 was a question g(x) = something. And then g(m-2) = something. Solve for m.</p>

<p>^oh yea, OK, I think I put 2 for that one. If anyone can remember the entire function, please post.</p>

<p>And is there a consolidated list on here for Math or not?</p>

<p>I vaguely remember g(x) = x^2 -x, but the second function was definitely g(m-2) = 12. </p>

<p>I still had x^2 + 3x -10 in my calculator as the function that I used to figure out m =2, though. Hope that helps.</p>

<p>I still had x^2 + 3x -10 in my calculator as the function that I used to figure out m =2"</p>

<p>How can m=2? That would mean that g(2-2)=g(0)=0. I got that m=6 because than g(m-2)=g(6-2)=g(4)=4^2-2=16-4=12.</p>

<p>i remember getting 2 for m</p>
