October SAT Math

<p>yeah that's why i was thinking, never heard any pentagons.</p>

<p>The teams one was the first grid in which was #9. It definitely said same # on each team</p>

<p>It mentioned "same number of students per team" towards the end. I remember underlining it too.</p>

<p>yeah yeah enough of old questions, any agree with me on the p/t question
what did people get?</p>

<p>no, no the pentagon question was NOT experimental</p>

<p>unless, of course, there were two questions on pentagons</p>

<p>there was a pentagon, which when split up, yielded a rectangle and two 3 4 5 triangles
i believe the question asked what was the perimeter of the said pentagon, the answer was 22</p>

<p>(hopes that helps and makes y'all sleep! =))</p>

<p>it was a trapezoid, no?</p>

<p>the trapezoid was another problem with four circles or something
the answer for the trapezoid was 20</p>

<p>no it was 16 + 4sqrt2. one had to account for the fact that the hypotenuse was longer the the two bottom sides. if you added up all the five sides to 4 it would be 20, but the height the hypotenus can't be the same length as the bottom side of a hypothetically built traingle. who has heard of a 4-4-4 right triangle?</p>

<p>Ii don't believe they were right triangles.</p>

<p>They weren't right triangles, that wouldn't make much sense. They WERE equilateral triangles, so it would be 4-4-4.</p>

<p>Annndd strangeindianfoo, the perimeter question definitely wasn't a pentagon. It was like this /|___|\ with a top connecting the 2 straight lines. a right triangle on each side of a rectangle. definitely a trapezoid unless i remember it wrong, which is possible considering it's 1:18 AM haha.</p>

<p>Okay for the question about the 33 students, The question specifically asked what is the greatest number of teams with 2 or more players. The answer is 16. It did NOT ask what the greatest number of teams with 2 players was. I initially made that mistake then I read the question more specifically. Sorry guys. </p>

<p>15 x 2 = 30 3 students are left = 1 </p>

<p>15+1=16</p>

<p>16 is the max number of teams....</p>

<p>For the last time its 11.</p>

<p>It asked for an equal number of members for each team.</p>

<p>^Except all teams have to have an equal amount of players, which makes your answer completely wrong.
11 teams of 3 people = 33.</p>

<p>Seriously, this problem was like the first grid-in. </p>

<p>EDIT:
You beat me to it fried...:P</p>

<p>LOL, I can't believe this question is still being glorified. It said max number of teams with equal players</p>

<p>^I know. It was clearly 11 once you see what was asked.</p>

<p>damn..I got the trapezoid one wrong..I also put 16 + 4sqrt2 because there was a chord at the top of the trapezoid.</p>

<p>hey guys what about the one that said
6 is less than or equal to p which is less thn or equal to 12
6 is less than or equal to t which is less than or equal to 18</p>

<h2>what is the range of p/t, i put 1/3< p/t< 2, what you guys put?</h2>

<p>The answer to this one was A
1/4<p/t<2/3
or something like that
as p/t is
1<p/t<2/3
so anything in 1/4<p/t<2/3 is in the range</p>

<p>i think this one was in the experimental section cos I didn't have this</p>

<p>I don't remember that question. Maybe it was experimental.</p>

<p>O SNAP! I think you guys are right.. O well that just -1 on a grid in for me. Guess i'm omitted 2 including grid in failure.... :) still good score /think</p>
