***Official Nov 2014 SAT (US ONLY)***

<p>I mean I knew if you change the number, you could prove that rule true. But I wasn’t sure if n is constant or not.</p>

<p>It is not ambiguous, they literally tell you n and k are any positive integer</p>

<p>Does anyone know how to ask College Board about this question?</p>

<p>@PoopyMcGee12‌ , yes but we don’t know if n and k can change. I put all three but again, it is a little ambiguous. like 40%.</p>

<p>@literallydone it is no error for the elephant question</p>

<p>what was the mixture one guys with the paint?</p>

<p>They just say “a positive integer”, and it’s not plural, so i thought they meant it is constant.</p>

<p>I’m still not understanding the complaint. The sequence was 3, 5, 9, 17</p>

<p>When n = 1</p>

<p>2^1 + 1 = 3</p>

<p>When n = 2</p>

<p>2^2 + 1 = 5</p>

<p>When n = 3</p>

<p>2^3 + 1 = 9</p>

<p>When n = 4</p>

<p>2^4 + 1 = 17</p>

<p>22.5 @tp2016</p>

<p>Its not that it doesn’t work. We don’t know if we can change n. it’s a semi-valid complaint in my opinion.</p>

<p>OK wait the roman numeral one said 2 times one less than the previous one. not one less than 2 times the previous term. that makes the difference.</p>

<p>What threw me off about the roman numeral one was they switched up variables between II and III and k is usually a constant…</p>

<p>Does anyone know how to contact college board?</p>

<p>what do u guys think will be the math curve this time?</p>

<p>Yes it made me hate life but now pheww</p>

<p>wait for the question about the statement “the pen is mightier than the sword but the pencil can make better pens and better swords” I put play on words is wrong. can someone explain how that would be correct?</p>

<p>I think the CR curve is going to be the generous one and the Math curve with be the harsh one.</p>

<p>@botherme its not a play on words</p>

<p>@ZucchiniSoup according to their website you should email <a href="mailto:satquestion@info.collegeboard.org">satquestion@info.collegeboard.org</a></p>

<p>@botherme it was sarcasm. The sentence really didn’t have any hints of sarcasm at all</p>
