<p>What was the answer to the question with the circle, and then there was a 60 degree angle in it?</p>

<p>I put in 10, and I think 15 was an answer choice too. Don’t remember</p>

<p>the answer was 2080 or E</p>

<p>The dots one was definitely E) 2,080. It’s 64 + 63 + 62 + 61 … + 2 + 1 = 2,080.</p>

<p>what about eclipse question? I put E but I guessed…</p>

<p>ahhhh I knew it was 64 + 63 + 62… ect but I didn’t know how to enter that into my calculator</p>

<p>Dlehd, the ellipse was E. The equation that equaled 1.</p>

<p>I think it was okay, but I did end up guessing on three or four of them because I ran out of time to work them out. Like the dot one near the end and the equation with k in it.</p>

<p>I put 1:4 for the ratio of the cubes.</p>

<p>The dots one was evil.</p>

<p>What was the one with the circumscribed circle on the right triangle?</p>

<p>^ yeah, I guessed on the circumscribed circle one. I crossed out the answers that were on the x and y axis though.</p>

<p>The center was (4,3) I believe.</p>

<p>I put (1.5,2)</p>

<p>I’m already bad at math, so this was just plain hard for me. I had skipped a bunch of questions and had about 5 left when the proctor called time, so I just randomly bubbled in the last 5 and put down an educated guess for the others. The beginning was easy, so hopefully that makes up for it…</p>

<p>The triangle had points (0,6), (0,0), and (8,0) correct? If so then it’s (4,3). If any of those numbers are switched then it’s (3,4).</p>

<p>for the circumscribed circle, i think you have to find out the midpoint of hypotenuse… so i think it was (4,3)</p>

<p>for the system of equations, with k in it, the answer was -9, or A, yes? Also someone want to predict the curve?</p>

<p>agree with -9</p>

<p>How is the mid pt of the hypotnenuse the center of the circle? Does anyone remember the way the q was worded? I don’t think I’m remembering this right</p>

<p>hey so for the one with the
2^x2-1… what was the answer?</p>

<p>2 imaginary answers
I graphed it and there were no “visible” answers so I chose 2 imaginaries</p>
