What was the topic of improving paragraphs

Please answer this. Are we allowed to discuss the answers just after taking the test?

@IvyHopeful98 yes

Rip 800 math dream

I need the link to please :slight_smile:

yea. root 109

@truculent Same. Probably got an 800 W tho, it was rather easy I think.

@zxcvbnm1216 the topic for improving paragraphs was something about the dorm matchmaking system.

It wasn’t 7/pi for a fact. When you crush a cylinder into a flat box, you’re ignoring the fact that 14 for the length has to be multiplied by two to get the circumference of the circle. There are two sides to the 14 and when you open up the box to a cylinder again, the circumference is 28 therefore making the answer 14/pi

@eXtremous thanks

@HariboGoldBear I put incredulous too.
-for the volcano one I put the word w/ the stem chrono (b/c same process).
-I had unease (despair was too drastic for what was in the text)
-the purpose wasn’t any of the two
-purpose of the line i can’t recall

@Garybarry 14 was the lenght and 11 was the height of the rect. Since the area of the rect. has to equal the lateral area of the cylinder, 14x11 = 2(pi)(11)r do the math and we’re right

I put incredulous for one of the questions for the Internet passage

What was the answer to the sentence completion. That said not all -------- words are the same as their use is different. I think the first word choices were synonym metaphor and some other choices

@Garybarry youre also not “crushing the cylinder” youre cutting it down the middle of the lateral area

Did you guys get dainty for an answer?

what was the answer to the peregrination question?
