<p>@icequeenforever Yes I believe it was on a pracice/previous psat. Does anyone else have an opinion on the Arctic Circle besides me and icequeenforever?</p>
<p>@icequeenforever it’s 12</p>
<p>@debate4ever one circle had D= 6 one D= 2. So that means R= 3 and R = 1 so the answer was none because 3+1<5</p>
<p>@Kylemcg what did you put for the hexagon one?</p>
<p>@icequeenforever I sure that answer was 15 degrees. Also the dog one was 12 but that was 2012 test</p>
<p>For the math question with the overlapping shapes, did you pick B? Something about two points in common</p>
<p>4*3^.5</p>
<p>Can someone describe the two parallel lines problem?</p>
<p>My peers and I have been disagreeing about the dual passage on inventions and innovation. My interpretation was that the two passages had contrasting points, with the first talking about how innovation was driven by wants, not necessities, while the second gave a specific example of how inventiveness was spurred through necessity. Which is the correct interpretation?</p>
<ul>
<li>10 character</li>
</ul>
<p>That’s exactly how I interpreted it.</p>
<p>Any opinions on the curve this year? I’m freaking out because the NM cutoff in our state is 211 and I probably missed around 5 math questions, a couple reading questions, and a couple writing questions.</p>
<p>I said 29</p>
<p>@Tamox1000 I think the second passage about innovation provided evidence against the first passage</p>
<p>@icequeenforever I said 15, though I am not sure. And @Kylemcg I used the special triangles to solve the hexagon</p>
<p>prevailing opinion seems to be good crit reading and writing curves</p>
<p>@Tamox100
I thought the second passage was a little ambiguous. The first passage clearly talked about how inventions were driven by desire and not necessity. The second passage because of its setting and everything seemed to suggest that invention was driven by necessity but it was not explicitly stated. Nevertheless, I agree with you that the second passage was in clear contrast with the first. </p>
<p>I’m pretty sure the absolute value was if |a-b|=5 and |a-c|=3 then which could be the value of |b-c| I. 2. II. 6? III. 8 and to get 8 |a-b|= 5 and -5 solve for a and get a= 5+b and b-5 then plug into |a-c| =3 to get 5+b-c=3 b-c=-2 |b-c|= 2 and do the same thing with b-5</p>
<p>@Mxin98 So no good math curve? Darn.</p>
<p>@vmiller7723 was this a question on the psat?</p>
