October SAT Math

<p>Ha, I know what you mean. I usually just solve the problem and the answer is just there. If it isn't.. I freak.</p>

<p>If you plugged in .6666666664, it would be 3.</p>

<h2>and technicially, .6666666664 is less than 2/3 :P</h2>

<p>Ren, he made a new account.
I never asked him what it was though.</p>

<p>msg me if you want his AIM</p>

<p>Well you guys are all making me feel better. I've had a lot of the same answers you guys did on some of the tougher problems, so I'm pretty confident about it. I'm hoping for like a 600 on it...</p>

<p>I know this has probably been covered completely, but I thought the elevator Q was 110 (or whatever it was) not 80.... It said the total distance covered, so I counted the feet up and down........ and I got 3 stops.</p>

<p>^u're right on the counting ft up and down, it's 80. i counted from left to right, then right to left, wrote the numbers 2x, im 99.9% sure its 80 XD</p>

<p>How'd you get 110?
Did you use the x axis? o_O</p>

<p>what was the answer for 33 people making teams.. was it 11 or 16</p>

<p>Ren, i am 100% sure it was 80 as well</p>

<p>you would have gotten 110 if you had counted throughout the entire graph
however, the q only asked for a certain interval 2:00-2:02 (or 120 secs)</p>

<p>it was 11</p>

<p>...</p>

<p>anhtimmy- Nope, I just counted the total number of feet it went up and down on the y-axis... but considering everyone here says it's 80, it's probably 80 =(</p>

<p>And I got 11 on the team one.</p>

<p>it was 11.
it asked for maximum same # of teams with the same amount of people.
33/2 = 15.5 nope
33/3= 11 yep.</p>

<p>the topping question, i believe, is 12. it asked for combination. u had 6 choices of something and 2 choices of something else. so the combination would be 6x2=12. I got a 15 first, but i actually did it again to make sure. I believe it is 12.</p>

<p>You must have miscounted.
o_o
what I don't understand is where you got the extra 30 from.
Did you count past 120 secs?</p>

<p>It specifically asked for different one, meaning a combination.
6c2=15
OHHH the 120 secs one was 80 feet? YES</p>

<p>StrangeIndianFoo, that's what I did. I forgot to take the time interval into account. Ugh.</p>

<p>PennDreamer, wrong, it's 15. u can do the slow method,6+5+4+3+2+1 or
6 Cn 2 = 15</p>

<p>why is everyone getting 16 for the team one?? wat was so hard about it ? =/ its only #9 grid in..its a free giveaway</p>

<p>^ for the last time</p>

<p>its 11!!!!!!1</p>

<p>whats the numbers with the clay one? can anyone help?</p>

<p>that's 8 ^ the spheral clay</p>

<p>How is it 11? The max # teams with the same amount of people is 16--16 teams of 2, with one left over. Why would it be 11 teams if you can make 16? Unless the question said nobody could be left over.</p>

<p>Considering it was a #9, which should be the 2nd-easiest question in the section, it's crazy that there's so much debate over it.</p>
