<p>I went through some practice problems in the Barron's books and ambivalently said to myself on many problems "These won't be on the test" so I skipped many of their problems. Thank god I was right :D</p>
<p>I omitted 8 and so far I've missed 1, the "4/9" question ;;
What would that amount for me?</p>
<p><b>long distance call can't be 2/9</b></p>
<p>bec.. say if u used the coin as a model:</p>
<p>changed the possiblity of heads as the long dist call, so 1/2, and the possibility of tails as 1/2, what's the possibility of 1 head and 1 tail? 1/4 not 1!!</p>
<p>...i was gonna put 4/9 but i changed my mind....</p>
<p>the possibility of 1 head and 1 tail would be 1/2</p>
<p>Man, I got 750 on the practice test from collegeboard the night before (finishing 8 minutes early) and ended up bombing it horribly today. 11 omitted, 5 because I didn't pace myself. I already counted 2 wrong from this thread. Fustrating...</p>
<p>So, what was the circle problem's answer? x^2-6x+y^2-4 y-12=0 with radius of 5... or something.</p>
<p>complete the squares for the circle problem... you can rewrite it as
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 25</p>
<p>so the center is (3, 2)</p>
<p>no...i messed it up >< the 4/9 question...i knew it too!!! garrrrr</p>
<p>for the circle one, i put (3,-2) bec it was +6x? anyone remember?</p>
<p>The signs were definitely different. I remember that for sure cause I was like "aha! You can't trick me!". Ugh.</p>
<p>Anyway, it was either (-3,2) or (3,-2).</p>
<p>Pretty sure it was -6x but not sure either. I omitted it cause I spent some time on it, and was going to come back to it when after I was done (but I ended up not even getting close to finishing). I'm just asking for a friend.</p>
<p>It WAS (3,-2). 100% certain. (I checked my memory log of operations on my TI-89.)</p>
<p>oh, klogon tricked me</p>
<p>complete the squares for the circle problem... you can rewrite it as
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 25
so the center is (3, 2)"</p>
<p>there was no (3,2) answer...lol it was (3, -2)</p>
<p>Yes, we've already established that it was a mistake of typing a minus instead of a plus sign.</p>
<p>i think i'll go edit my post to erase my shame</p>
<p>oh wait... i can't</p>
<p>haha my bad for telling klogon the wrong equation, hard to remember these things. especially when your flustered over not bringing a calculator and using the 4 function one they gave me</p>
<p>sinx=0.90, 0 < x < pi/2 what is cosx/2? </p>
<p>what kind of score can I expect if I omitted 8 and missed 2?</p>
<p>What's the score I will get with -8 to -10 on the test with no omitted question?</p>
<p>arcsin(.9)=x
x=1.1197
cos 1.1197/2= .847</p>
<p>What scores can be expected with raw scores of 43 and 45 on Math 2?</p>
<p>Over30 - that should be really close to 800, I think.</p>
<p>omfg! just admit that it was really (3, -2)!!!!</p>
