<p>no library but i did have african conservation parks... damn that section was really easy though.</p>
<p>In the 70/3 question you were given the fact that a line segment represented 2/5 of side Pq( length of triangle). From this, you could deduce that one side of the triangle was 3/5pq. Because the other side of the triangle was the width and the given area was 7, you get the equation<br>
1/2(3/5pqw)= 7. You can solve it from here.</p>
<p>what about the acting one: which would prove that the characters brought in were all the same?</p>
<p>it was 23.3. First plug in 7 as the base of the triangle. then if the area is 7, then the height has to be 2. Setting 3/5x = 7, you get 11.something. Then multiply that by the two of the rectangle for lw and you get 23.3333</p>
<p>ok for 70/3:
visualize a big rectangle: with two smaller ones in it. the bigger of the two smaller rectangles is 2x7=14 so you set up a proportion. 2/3=x/14.</p>
<p>its 2/3 porportion not 2/5!</p>
<p>so. x=28/3 then you add taht to 14. =70/3</p>
<p>what about the acting one: which would prove that the characters brought in were all the same?</p>
<p>was it the students complained of repetitiveness?</p>
<p>i've taken several practice tests, and the firetruck section just seemed really weird. I would assume this would be the experimental section. who knows.</p>
<p>sunshine..waht other choices were there for that question</p>
<p>firetruck wasnt experimental...we got that established a while ago</p>
<p>I think that the repetetivness answer was wrong. I had that, then I changed it to something about lack of spontenaity.</p>
<p>wasnt it a rectangle with a triangle? wrong problem???</p>
<br>
<p>jimownz</p>
<br>
<p>divide the rectangle in two
one has a triangle in it
another one is a rectangle and its base is smaller than the other one since it is 2/5 of the whole length (other one has 3/5)</p>
<p>area of triangle = 7
twice the area of triangle(area of the rectangle on right) = 14
area of the other rectangle = 14*2/3 (since ratio is 2:3)
add these two and get 70/3</p>
<p>lol ok chill, you got it established a while ago maybe, but i just got on to this forum.</p>
<p>You know what, **** that firetruck section.</p>
<p>it was NOT play music with less discipline, it was live life with more passion</p>
<p>loll yeah man def. but i really feel like this SAT was meant to screw us. With the MLK passage, acting, firetrucks and what not...nothing like the blue book at all.</p>
<p>why more passion? and was it repetitiveness or spontenaeity? i was choosign between thsoe two, but spontenaeity seemed irrelevant.</p>
<p>Definitely life with more passion. Whatever her fiancees name was talked about the "vivacity of her music spilling over her bulkheads" or some other nonsense which amounted to her not being so reserved anymore.</p>
<p>it's 70/3, and i can explain this. they give you a rectangle, but they also say the one part is 2/5 of the whole bottom length. so automatically you assume that the other part is 3/5 of the whole length. and then it gives you a triangle with area 7, but then double that to fill up the whole 3/5 length. so it's 14 for that part now. take 14 and divide by (3/5) and you get 70/3.</p>
<p>thedude and sunshine, for that problem, what was the exact question and choices?</p>
