<p>@BoundForBoston thats what i got. God i hated that question</p>

<p>BoundForBoston: 831 was correct. I’m not exactly sure what the question was, but I remember bubbling it in.</p>

<p>@jeffisaboss i think it’s -2 because the second inequality said < not <=</p>

<p>I put satire/satirical</p>

<p>what was the answer to number 29, was it A. Proceed vs Precede, C. In praise of or E. No Error?</p>

<p>icyhotgel that’s what i got but I’m not sure what did you get for the</p>

<p>-5 <= x <= something
1 < y < 5
question?</p>

<p>you guys just said 1/2 was an answer to a grid in, what was the question?</p>

<p>For the one with ABCD in a line i put I and III. Anyone else got that?</p>

<p>Does anyone remember question 8 on one of the math question it was asking about two angles in a triangle vs. the third ( the sum of the two angles vs. the third angle) the answer choices were like
I. Acute triangle
II. Right Triangle
III. Obtuse triangle
which did you choose</p>

<p>@jeff, that one was -2</p>

<p>I thought CR was unusually difficult this time. The other sections seemed easy except for a couple of math questions.</p>

<p>Ahh, I put satire for the question concerning death as a punishment. Whatever, the math was surprisingly really easy and should pull through for me</p>

<p>Bump jlee’s question
Can someone please explain the whole proceed vs precede question out? I put c, in praise of </p>

<p>Also I believe the math question was
-5<=x<=5
1<y<5</p>

<p>You had to find b and u knew x could be equal to -5
Equation should have been x^2 + bx + 35 = 0
Sub x = -5
25 -5b + 35 = o
-5b = -60
B = 12</p>

<p>Did I do something wrong or misremember?</p>

<p>In regards to the radius of the circle grid-in question, this may sound presumptuous but, I believe you all are wrong. So the inner circle had a diameter of 6 thus it’s area was 9pi. The larger circle which engulfed that had a segment which (length 5) touched the smaller circle’s outer edge. If you carefully looked you would see that the segment (length 5) was HALF of the larger circle’s radius. So the larger circle had area 100pi. 100pi/9pi resulted in a grid in of 11.1 since 100/9 is too large for the alloyed answer space. It was a problem to which you had to pay extra careful attention.</p>

<p>Okay, so 831 on that question. </p>

<p>Anyone get 1680 cottons balls.
Then 2830 for the pattern one.
And 4 for the last write in?</p>

<p>A common feature of satire is strong irony or sarcasm—"in satire, irony is militant"[2]—but parody, burlesque, exaggeration,[3] juxtaposition, comparison, analogy, and double entendre are all frequently used in satirical speech and writing…yes this is from Wikipedia but this is true of satires as they have been defined</p>

<p>For ABCD it’s all of the above (I II III)</p>

<p>I believe the 64/9 answer is wrong. I hope it is because I got the rest right. </p>

<p>It stated, I believe, the ratio of the area of large circle to small circle. Not entire circle to small circle. Thus you would subtract 64 by 9 to get 55 for the area of the LARGER circle.</p>

<p>Therefore the answer is 55/9.</p>

<p>Boundfor boston, I’m pretty sure I put the same answers as you.</p>

<p>lol i put 64/9. i really hope its not wrong, but then again i read the question kind of hastily.</p>
