Official SAT Math IIc October Discussion

<p>f(x) < g(x) that's right whoever said it</p>

<p>yeah I got 120 for that heartbeat one...though I have a feeling it's wrong because it seemed so simple.</p>

<p>really, can anyone confirm the 120 + sin(2pi t)</p>

<p>Yeah, I got f(x)<g(x) for f-g</p>

<p>Wasn't question 46 or 47 the one where you had to use the Cosine rule to find the angle? That was pretty simple and straightforward as well...</p>

<p>Someone confirm for circles vs. 4 points and 1/f(x) graph
What did the 1/f(x) graph look like? Where did it cross the y axis?</p>

<p>the original graph crossed y axis at (0,2) and the answer was the inverse, so it crossed the graph at (2,0).. i think it was choice D</p>

<p>the 1/f(x) graph was reflected across the y=x line. Therefore, it looked like a mirror of the original graph over that line...</p>

<p>yeah there was one that required using the law of cosines....I don't remember the answer though...</p>

<p>1/f(x) was choice A, I actually substituted the original points on the graph of f(x) to double-check my answer...only choice 'A' seemed to fit</p>

<p>the one with the colony that started with 5 things and doubled every 23 minutes and asked how many were there after 2.3 hours
was the answer 15625?</p>

<p>I omitted 8 and got 2-3 wrong. Would I still be able to get a 700 or above?</p>

<p>for the colony doubling thing... i think i got 300 something?</p>

<p>I don't remember what I put anymore xD Oh, well... I'll just count that I missed one then... Argh.</p>

<p>yeah it was 300 something!</p>

<p>I think I got 15625... 300 is too low. It doubles every 23 minutes for 2.3 hours.</p>

<p>well since 2.3 hours is 138 minutes...that means it only doubles 6 times...?</p>

<p>I'm pretty sure it was 320</p>

<p>I wrote it out</p>

<p>The colony one was 5 * 2^6 = 320</p>

<p>(2^6: 2 because it doubles, hence times 2; 6 because there's 6 sets of 23 minutes in 2.3 hours)</p>

<p>I also got 320 and I did it by hand so I'm pretty sure it's correct.</p>

<p>the answer for doubleing is 300</p>

<p>what about the question about rosa's percentiles ( didnt read teh middle pages of the thread) </p>

<p>i put there was no way to determine becuase her score could have been 1,2,3,4,6,7,8. If her score was 1 2 3 or 4 then her score is not between two guy boys but if her score is 6 7 8 then she is between.</p>
