<p>ok then how do you get 8.5 ? This question was tricky it said real numbers that CAN give you an average of the 7 numbers from 2 to 20 of 7 , 8.5 , or 10 . 3 appears most. so 2 3 3 6 17 19 20 = 70 so 70/7= 10 and 70/10=7 and 70/8.5=8.2352 (doesn't work) so it's only 7 and 10</p>
<p>true, but...hmmm...i remember reading the question very carefully and it said integer...i think i'll start a thread to see how many people think it was integer or not because i'm concerned about my 800</p>
<p>This is SAT 1 so it wouldn't expect you to know what real numbers are , SAT 2's would. SAT 1 would ask about integers .</p>
<p>GoSixers - what did you put for the answer? You do know that intergers are numbers like 1 2 5 4 6 33 6 77 55 45 87 ? right?</p>
<p>(8.5)(7) = 59.5. </p>
<p>Let's say you had 2 3 3 6 x y 20. Therefore x + y has to equal 25.5 However, if the largest number is 20, you can have</p>
<p>x = 12
y = 13.5</p>
<p>or </p>
<p>x = 11
y = 14.5</p>
<p>Among others, of course.</p>
<p>yes, because they wouldn't expect you to know about complex numbers. maybe rational numbers and integers but not imaginary or real</p>
<p>GoSixers, why don't you start a thread with a vote then? I think that would be a good idea. However, I am sticking to my belief that it said REAL numbers.</p>
<p>8.5 is not a interger , Julina - you have to have integer values for x and y , no integer values give 8.5 as the answer . So the answer was 7 and 10 . period .</p>
<p>Guys it said "real integer values"</p>
<p>No no no. The question where "ill conceived assent" was a possible answer, the answer isn't "ill conceived assent". The question specifically contains the phrase "in a legal lesson, this paragraph is most like..." or something to that extent. The keywords in that were "legal lesson". In a legal lesson, you don't provide "warnings" about ill conceived assent. It was, however, an example of traditional practices because that paragraph details specific legal interactions, i.e. how the beaver made a contract with no specific terms, went back on his contract by not fulfilling the agreement, etc. It was giving all sorts of actual examples of legal practices in that paragraph, hence why you would select examples of traditional practices, because all of those things were traditional legal practices. Did that paragraph contain warnings about ill conceived assent? Yes, but you would only arrive at that conclusion if you're reading too much into the passage. It serves as a warning in only the vaguest of senses as you would take that moral from the beaver's mistakes, but it most closely matched examples of practices because of how they were actualyl restated in the passage.</p>
<p>NO It said real numbers. I+II+III And it was legal assent. The traditional values= legal lesson doesn't make sense at all.</p>
<p>You do NOT have to have integral values for x & y.</p>
<p>The SAT 1 wouldn't test you on REAL or COMPLEX terms. Well the answer was I III NOT 8.5</p>
<p>It was not traditional values, it was traditional practices. furthermore it was not legal assent, it was ill-conceived assent. these make huge differences.</p>
<p>And yes, I and III, not 8.5</p>
<p>If it said REAL numbers then it's tooo easy ; you can just answer I II III. right off the bat</p>
<p>IvyLeague99, I will bet you my life that it said REAL numbers. Seriously. </p>
<p>And I agree with darkruler on the "ill-conceived assent".</p>
<p>I inferred it to be real</p>
<p>there is too much worked involved with complex in this problem it it had said that</p>
<p>look on collegeboard , the math doesn't test real or complex numbers</p>
<p>I checked to. The point ius, wheter intergers or not, most people(myself included) went back and checked each answer. It said real numbers. Not integer.</p>
<p>Can I get one raw off cr and still get an 800?</p>
