OFFICIAL saturday PSAT discussion

<p>The answer was 9... if i remember correclty.</p>

<p>One was about Telekinesis... Another was about the rare Clthuthu (w/e about the spelling).... And the double passage was about short stories... Awesome passage!</p>

<p>yeah, i said it poked fun at max too.</p>

<p>i think, although i may be remembering incorrectly, the answer to the monday, tuesday, wednesday q was 6x-3=9.</p>

<p>I think the question was, he worked twice as many hours on tuesday as on monday, and on wednesday he worked three hours less than monday + tuesday combined.</p>

<p>6x - 3 = 9</p>

<p>i had a question on open ended with x=the sum of primes... y=sum of evens z=sum of consecutive numbers... i got a neg answer but can't have negative....do i remember the problem correctly?</p>

<p>for that i got 4x-3 i think?</p>

<p>I meant zoogies, lol. Let's try and sort this out.
I think (sqrt3)/4 is right, b/c in your explanation, you have:
"x^2 = .75
x = rad3"
sqrt(.75) is .866, which is (sqrt3)/2, not sqrt3. Divide that by 2 and it's (sqrt3)/4.</p>

<p>am0000- that's the same answer I got</p>

<p>The answer to the monday, tuesday problem was 6x-3 for SURE.... x on monday, 2x on tuesday, 3x-3 on wednesday... for a total of 6x-3</p>

<p>does anyone remember what the question was for the 2 overlapping equilateral triangles? also on the writing part did anyone put E for the question about shirley chilsom (it was one of those pick the wrong part questions)?</p>

<p>The overlapping triangles was 9... The shirley chilsom question... I think the answer was like C because it was "she was a representative OF new york..." not for. I'm not sure though</p>

<p>"<a href="http://www.historychannel.com/speeches/archive/speech_358.html"&gt;http://www.historychannel.com/speeches/archive/speech_358.html&lt;/a&gt;" It says representative of...</p>

<p>actually i did think i put 6x-3...my brain doesn't like to work that early....i should just stay up next time i take a morning test... i put E for the shirley question over lapping triangle i think i got a difference of 9</p>

<p>for the one that was something like m=12p...i got I, II, and III..I was really unsure though.</p>

<p>i think i got I and II....</p>

<p>"sqrt(.75) is .866, which is (sqrt3)/2, not sqrt3. "</p>

<p>DOH!</p>

<p>The answer was I only... Here are some reasons why. It doesnt have to be even if p was a rational... EX: m=12(1/12)=1... I can't remember the other condition, No matter what it has to stay positive...</p>

<p>on the writing with the paragraph about the pianist:</p>

<p>this was a rewording question and i narrowed it down to two chocies
-"albert was applauded by the audience who always demanded an encore"
-"albert's PERFORMANCE was applauded by the audience who always demanded an encore"</p>

<p>anyone else remember what they put?</p>

<p>the one about m being a positive integer was I only. because x could be .25 and the answer would be a positive odd integer. so that would cancel out both II and III</p>

<p>why was the vocab soo hard? :(</p>

<p>I think the one in the math with the I, II, III was only I. R didn't have to be an integer...</p>

<p>It was the first one... It started off like Being an excellent Pianist... Well the performance isnt a pianist, but Albert is!</p>

<p>m=12p was definetly only I
I p is positive
II p is an integer
III m is even</p>

<p>p doesnt have to be an integer, m doesnt have to be even. if p is 1/4 (not an integer) than m is odd.</p>

<p>Does anyone remember the writing sentence correction near the end that ended in "indeed"? What was that!?</p>
