<p>alright. the first grid in. did anyone get 10 1/2?</p>

<p>^yup, that was it.</p>

<p>@ someone on page 8.... essay about technological advances
haha yea that essay was SO easy... usually i can't think of any examples like on the spot, but that one basically gave you examples to use lol</p>

<p>did anyone have that question "if i study, then i will pass the test"....?</p>

<p>and what is the answer to the italian/german one? a lot of ppl have been saying it's 9 and 6....</p>

<p>i forget what the problem said.</p>

<p>@ page 42....
23(n-1) = (50-p)90
(n,p) ={ (1,50), (91,27), (181,4) }
-- why was it necessarily the point (1, 50)?</p>

<p>""need not buy" was WRONG the subject of the sentence was "Someone" so the correction would be "needs""</p>

<p>no need not is correct. it's like saying, "you need not stress so much over this" or "i need not stress so much.." or "SHE need not stress so much"...
i forget what it's called but there is DEFINITELY a rule about this... you know how for the subjunctive it's "if i WERE... " well, in this case, the verb is always in that present third person tense. i don't remember what that is called though...</p>

<p>Regarding the "someone need not..." question, I found something online that answers our question. It seems that there is a rule that in the third person singular, when need is followed by an infinitive without "to", "needs" becomes "need." For example- "He need not do it. vs He needs to not do it." How are we supposed to know that?? I got it wrong too :( Conjugation</a> of the verb "need"</p>

<p>?????????</p>

<p>what?</p>

<p>im tying to figure out which version i had...</p>

<p>i didnt have the one about scientists and wikipedia...</p>

<p>was that one a math section or writing?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>bluedaisy so what do you say is the answer....</p>

<p>and i'm not sure if the rule you stated is the one that applies to that problem....</p>

<p>pienso que...bluedaisy affirms that the answer to that writing question was 'No Error' not 'need not' </p>

<p>i also had a problem w/ this question...but since it was like the 2nd to last sentence and I had found definite wrong parts to every sentence except one i just put 'no error' </p>

<p>(thou) needest LOL.</p>

<p>there was a sentence completion about option choices...was the answer plethora or modicum?</p>

<p>someone is singular? singular words need to be followed by singular verbs? shouldn't it be "someone needs not"</p>

<p>does anyone remember the very last math question on the test (20 minute section)?</p>

<p>also- what was preternatural--- anticipate the answer for? is it definitely right?</p>

<p>^the person had preternatural powers because he was able to anticipate his customer's needs before they expressed them.</p>

<p>"Someone</a> needs not" or "Someone need not"? - Yahoo! Answers</p>

<p>does anyone remember the exact question?</p>

<p>Someone who uses computers only for typing and emails need not buy an expensive, high tech machine.</p>

<p>something liike that, obviously not exct</p>

<p>10 characters (sorry error post)</p>

<p>narcissa you got it like exactly right. anyway i goti t wrong, but it seems that the correct grammar is in fact "need not."</p>

<p>can we talk a little more about the shrewd financial decision vs. parents?
i dont think i put either so i obviously got it wrong.</p>
