<p>juicy, i dont remember that problem</p>
<p>I think that was experimental.</p>
<p>Anybody get rs as not 30 (mult choice)?
and can everybody confirm the green and red candy as not an experimental</p>
<p>blue mouse
idk what to tell you
it cant be 1.6
because that would mean to get the area of the figure
you have to do 1.6 sqaured and times that by the 10 boxes and it has to come out to 16...BUT IT DOESNT...lol...i dont make these tests...its just the way it is</p>
<p>Morgan17, I meant that in all of the real (and practice) tests I've taken from CollegeBoard, I've never had to put a square root in a grin in (in decimal form). Collegeboard wouldn't do this because it says at the beginning of each test administration that you can do the entire math section without a calculator.</p>
<p>Each side had length = k, and there were 16 sides, so perimeter = 16 k = area. Area = 10 k^2. The square is already in the equation. Solve 16 k = 10 k^2, k = 1.6.</p>
<p>Not sure how it's possible to get root 1.6. Apologies if this is wrong.</p>
<p>Morgan17, 1.6 is the length of one side. The perimeter was 16k and the area would be 10k^2. 1.6 solves these equations.</p>
<p>@taffy: what problem? telephone or the problem with the 18?</p>
<p>lol if you say so
as i said before i already got my 760 in math last time
so i care more about cr answers than arguing over these...so maybe your right...idk</p>
<p>taffy -- yeah, it's probably experimental. I'm surprised there hasn't been much discussion about the rectangular box side 18 question... so I guess a lot of people don't have it. Must be experimental. I feel sorry for the poor bastahds who get this question on their real SAT later... it was awful.</p>
<p>the emphatic question was w/ the overpopulation passage #2 in the first line</p>
<p>The idea that we are overpopulated is not only widespread, but wrong. </p>
<p>something along those lines</p>
<p>that's a very strong sentence with a lot of conviction, so i went w/ emphatic.</p>
<p>Since Morgan had CR experimental, and he had the 1.6 problem, the second grid-in with the P/Q question and the 80% insurance pay thing is the experimental section?</p>
<p>look below</p>
<p>there was a sentence completion w/ the "editors" and "uneven quality"; i was debating between:
lax...harsh
seclusive...inclusive</p>
<p>did we already establish an answer on that one?</p>
<p>we established seclusive...inclusive</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure it was emphatic. I am not sure how dismay (consternation and distress, typically that caused by something unexpected) would fit...</p>
<p>About "one" being singular: If the verb were to agree with "one" then it would "that one cooks." You add an "s" to singular verbs: He eats, she says, etc.</p>
<p>The sentence describes something that is "required," so the subjunctive mood must be used. In the third person singular, this means that the inflected "s" be removed. "To want that-" and "to wish that" are other phrases that introduce the subjunctive:</p>
<p>I want that he eat.
I wish that he find it.
It is required that one do his or her homework. Not: It is required that one does his or her homework.</p>
<p>From the Oxford Dictionary, here are some lasting expressions that use the subjunctive: be that as it may; | far be it from me; | as it were ; | lest we forget ; | God help you; | perish the thought; and | come what may.</p>
<p>Here is what it has to say on usage and form:
[quote]
It is distinctive only in the third person singular, where the normal indicative -s ending is absent ( | he face rather than | he faces in the example above), and in the verb to be ( | I were rather than | I was , and | they be rather than | they are in the examples above). In modern English, the subjunctive mood still exists but is regarded in many contexts as optional. Use of the subjunctive tends to convey a more formal tone, but there are few people who would regard its absence as actually wrong.

yes it is...i dont remember such a question...do you remember any others from that because maybe i jsut forgot that one..but i HIGHLY doubt it</p>
<p>parabuzzle, the perimeter was 16k and the area was 10ksquared</p>
<p>parabuzzle ur explanation is wrong
it said this:</p>
<p>Perimeter = Area
10 total Squares
Each square had a side length of k
so the Area of each square = k^2, so the total area = 10k^2
there were 16 total sides to the perimeter, so p = 16k
p=a; 16k = 10k^2; 16 = 10k; k = 1.6</p>
<p>u switched the perimeter and area.</p>
<p>Parabuzzle, you have your area and perimeter reversed. There were 10 squares stacked 4, 3, 2, 1. The perimeter is the same as if you had a 4x4 box or 16k. The area of each square is k^2.</p>
<p>some1 please start a compilation of answers w/ divided sections: reading, writing, math</p>
<p>oh yeah! xD; sorry, i just pulled it from memory. <em>edits</em></p>
