Official October SAT Math Discussion

<p>Wasn’t the bell distribution Question different ?</p>

<p>I recall them asking:</p>

<p>I. f(2) > f(1)
II. f(5) > f(4)
III. f(9) > f(7) </p>

<p>I & II are true because f was increasing, II was wrong because f was decreasing.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember ?</p>

<p>on mine III was correct as well. the answer was I, II, and III because it doesn’t matter if it’s increasing or decreasing you’re only looking at that point.</p>

<p>I got 1600 for that</p>

<p>I believe it was f(7)>f(9), therefore all 3 were right… ****ed about the high school one tho i think I got 1420</p>

<p>Yea well if the function is decreasing obviously f(9) < f(7) which makes III wrong. but I don’t remember if that’s how it was written…</p>

<p>If I recall correctly, it actually said f(7)>f(9), and I got E (which was all three).
I remember because III. was different from the other two.</p>

<p>Ok thanks.</p>

<p>What was the answer to the oven question? did anyone get the section with the question 3x=5y and we had to find which of choices were true or was that the experimental section?</p>

<p>for the rail marker/rest stop one, was it 8:3 ?</p>

<p>For that Roman Numeral question, mine said f(7) > f(9), which is true since it’s decreasing there. I initially misread it and thought it said f(9) > f(7). </p>

<p>Oven one was 130 I think. 375 - 300(.9)^(t/2) = 375 - 300(.9)^2 = 375 - 300<em>.81, for the sake of laziness approximate .81 to 4/5. 375 - 300</em>4/5 = 375 - 240 = 135. The correct answer would be slightly lower than that, so 130 was correct.</p>

<p>so people are saying experimental math was the one with the slope.
do you guys remember any other questions from that section?</p>

<p>which was experimental… the first Math section with the circles and finding y degrees was real… the grid in section about the school absenses was real, the 16 question section at the end was real? Did the experimental have a question about two cylinders that had the same vertex and to find the ratio of the smaller one to the larger one? One had side length 5, one had side length 10, they had different heights but shared the same hypotenuse…</p>

<p>was the jackson high school one a grid in? i cant remember. and the oven one? what was the questoin for the oven one?</p>

<p>I know the experimental had 3x=5y and we had to pick which roman numerals were true. There was also a question of midpoint coordinate and we had to find out the end point. and there was a 45-45-90 and 30-60-90 triangle and we had to find the perimeter.</p>

<p>Is there a thread for SUBJECT math 1 and 2 tests?</p>

<p>The one that I’m pretty sure was the experimental math had a question about humpback whales - I remember because it was super weird.</p>

<p>For the “k” problem, was the answer 16?</p>

<p>The humpback whale one wasn’t experimental. That question was way but not experimental. </p>

<p>Someone correct me if I’m wrong.</p>

<p>what did you guys get for #17 (Cube one)?</p>

<p>What about for the one that is f(6)/6=x^2-6x+9</p>
