<p>lol. I don’t remember the actual question and it seems no one else either.
Shall I remove it.</p>
<p>It was an easy What is X question.</p>
<p>An example: (This is NOT what it was.)</p>
<p>16= 2^5x-1</p>
<p>What is X.</p>
<p>Who thinks the curve will be more lenient or not?
Just so you can get a feel…
If the test was easier I know its 5 wrong (45) = 800
I know most of the time the test is 6 wrong (43) = 800</p>
<p>But does any one think that the test might go to 7 wrong (41) or to raw of (42) = 800 ??
Personally, i like raw of 42. Opinions?</p>
<p>I never heard of a 41/50 or 42/50 curve.</p>
<p>For this test, I personally think it will be 44/50=800</p>
<p>TY Niceboat. I noticed earlier that there was some concern about the probability question involving picking 2 marbles out of a bag. The posted answer, 7/51, was correct, I believe. I don’t remember the exact numbers, but basically you have to do the number of the color marbles that you want, choosing 2, divided by the total number of marbles, choosing 2. ex: (7 nCr 2)/(18 nCr 2)=7/51. 7 and 18 may be the exact numbers, but they might also be just wishful thinking.</p>
<p>Guys, there’s no reason to believe this curve will be anymore generous. It felt like a very standard test to me so I’d say 44+ is 800, maybe 43 if they are extremely generous. No way 42 or under is 800.</p>
<p>I think that it’s possible that the curve may be at 43 due to some stranger questions like the sphere and the imaginary roots question</p>
<p>the blue book (copyrighted in 2010) says 43 curve which is 6 wrong…and those practice tests were really easy in comparison to real thing. so i thought might go to 42 curve to be more lenient. Am i wrong? opinions?</p>
<p>ALSO the function one where function was a “F” that threw me off b/c i thought it was a variable…</p>
<p>Is 6 incorrect questions considered -7 or -8?</p>
<p>@hellow504jr It threw everyone in my room off, I thought it was a constant at first and ended up omitting it</p>
<p>-7.
10 chars</p>
<p>It’s -7. They round up.</p>
<p>sillyup20: -7</p>
<p>I know the answer to the parametric equations question (x = 3cost and y = 5sint, or something like that) was (x^2)/9 + (y^2)/25 = 1…but does anyone remember if that was choice D or E? I can’t remember if there was a choice (x^2)/9 - (y^2)/25 = 1 which I may have chosen accidentally…</p>
<p>okay nice. still have a chance at 800 if they make the curve 43 (which is probably unlikely)</p>
<p>I only remember a (x^2)/9 + (y^2)/25 I think it was answer c or d</p>
<p>@crushroller
I don’t recall what each of the answer choices were, but I believe (x^2)/9 + (y^2)/16 = 1 is correct. It is the equation for an ellipse. There is no reason to subtract the x and the y.</p>
<p>for the one with the first number over 1000, how did you get 1001…i got 1005?</p>
<p>Also i was really confused on the pizza question if anyone could explain that
thanks</p>
<p>8C3 +8C2 +8C1</p>
<p>56 different ways to have 3 toppings of 8
28 different ways to have 2 toppings of 8
8 different ways to have 1 topping of 8.</p>
<p>56+28+8=92</p>
<p>It goes up by 4 each time. It can’t be 1005.
1st term is 5
2nd term is 9
Each term is +4
The 249th term is 997
The 250th term is 1001</p>
<p>Is 3 wrong omit 2 a 44?</p>
<p>Yup. it’s 44/50.</p>
<p>@Cghiru
The difference between each number was 4 (a1=5 a2=9, 9-5=4). 1005 is not the answer because 1005-4=1001, which is the first number above 1000 that the sequence encounters.</p>
<p>For the pizza question, you could have any combination of 1,2, or 3 toppings out of 8 choices. Order does not matter, so you use combinations. To get the answer, you have to add the number of combinations together. You do (8 nCr 1)+(8 nCr 2)+(8 nCr 3)=92.</p>
