Official SAT I Answer Thread - 12/4 - U.S. Version

<p>michael_pham, i chose plead:request because implore is a greater degree of ask, and plead is a greater degree of request (as u stated, the intensity of plead was greater than request). inquire and question don't really have a degree difference.</p>

<p>same reasoning as me pygo</p>

<p>the first two SC u have are experimental</p>

<p>Goodnight Everyone, I will update tomorrow if anything else changes. Sleepy time</p>

<p>heh...looking through the verbal I didnt miss any I didnt omit. And I ommited a few...but I wasnt looking to get a GREAT score. Just wanted a 590 V...an improvement from my 510 560 570. It seems I did better in verbal then math. Idono thought I did well in math but it seems I missed around 7 from my raw score..so hopefully a 690..which will lower my requirement to 580 for V. Wish me luck.</p>

<p>the one about the chapters in the book, it was 80 pages wasnt it.
the reflection should have been A.<br>
2.5 hours.
110 degrees
2/7 probability
1/4 probability</p>

<p>These are unconfirmed but i think these are right</p>

<p>7.C cone
8. was it the one about the residents then it was B. more res then members
9.C, the power one
10. I put D
11. .2m should be greater than 0.05m
12. I put D with the x,y one but not sure
13. -2(1)= -2

<p>14) I'm pretty sure its Plead : Request since Implore/Plead are the extremes of Request/Ask.</p>

<p>From what I can recall everything else looks good.</p>

<p>OMFG STOP DEBATING IT YOU GUYS it's freaking plead:request, stop debating it! You're bringing tears to my eyes! Dear lord!</p>

<p>DOn't forget the Econobooks question- the other answer was 2%.</p>

<p>Also: </p>

<p>-(x^p)^n = (x^n)^p answer was c</p>

<p>-6007 for gridin
-5 for first gridin
-3 for gridin asking by how much the value would change by replacing (N ) by (n+3)?? Not sure about this one</p>

<p>Grid-Ins</p>

<ol>
<li>5 (50 percent of 10 percent of 100 or some crap like that)</li>
<li>6007 (eh everyone got this one it was stupid easy whatever)</li>
<li>9 (0 < a < b < 6 < c < e asking for smallest value of a + e)</li>
<li>120 (in an isoceles triangle where two equal angles are 30, what's the other? :P)</li>
<li>.5 is what I put for this one. An algebraic inequality thingie.</li>
<li>18 (how many in the lab if you are initially 6 scopes short, but if you double the scopse, you ahve 6 too many)</li>
<li>280 (value of x is the mean of a + b + c + d + x is 120 or something and the mean of a + b + c + d is 80 I think)</li>
<li>8 (that slope problem, y2 - y1/x2 - x1 fosho)</li>
<li>125 (number of 3-digit numbers that were composed of odd digits)</li>
<li>5/64 (easy tape problem bullcrap)</li>
</ol>

<p>i can confirm that collegefreak has the right answers. although 5 could be 0<x<5/6</p>

<p>Mutliple choice</p>

<p>-1200 meters-train
-side of square is 9-perimeter of triangle and square is equal
-9- 620th therm in sequence
- I, II, II for the pencils
-125 for 3 odd digit numbers
-23n/17 for graph
-2% to toher problem for graph
-I, II, III for median and avergae problem
-e>d>c>f
-closest to x- axis (-3,2)
- the circle can touch 7 lines
-11, for the problem about ading all integers from -11 to 10
-x^2 = 9, largest possible value= 50
-61, 63 refutation to theorem</p>

<p>Quantitive Comaprisons</p>

<p>-the logic problem about the club and community... it was the community
-J/(j+1) < k/(k-1)
-a+b+c= 10 which is bigger... 10-c, 10-(a+b)... answer was D
-the cone and the cylinder height... C, they were equal
-circle area [(s/3.14)^ 2 * pi ]> square area (s^2/16)</p>

<p>He totally jacked my post, that's what! They're my right answers, thank you, hence my obviously idiosyncratic "bullcrap" language</p>

<p>how about that t>3 in t^2 and that other equation</p>

<p>t^2 is always greater
since t^2-6t+9=(t-3)^2>0</p>

<p>can someone explain to me why the average median problem is I,II, III?</p>

<p><a href="http://i%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://i&lt;/a> m g 1 1 6 . e x s . c x /img116/4711/o3momgquestioon.gif</p>

<p><em>remove the spaces</em></p>

<p>Please tell me the line reflection question was like this? I didn't read the question and answered hastily.</p>

<p>The average median problem had the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, and said that you are gonna add one more number, where the median should equal the mean.</p>

<p>I: Adding 5. Yields 2 4 5 6 8. Median 5. The mean is (2 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 8) = 25, 25/5 = 5. 5 works.</p>

<p>II: Adding 0. Yields 0 2 4 6 8. Median 4. The mean is (0 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 8) = 20, 20/5 = 4. 4 works.</p>

<p>III: Adding 10. Yields 2 4 6 8 10. Median 6. The mean is (2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10) = 30, 30/5 = 6. 10 works.</p>

<p>Thus I II and III are true.</p>

<p>can anyone confirm that the answer to that t>3, that t^2 is greater than that other equation?</p>
