PSAT '09 Form S Official Thread

<p>The question for the 30 was the circle split into 8 sections.
Four were labeled A, four were labeled B.</p>

<p>It said the the probability of the spinner landing on a B was 1/3 and asked for the angle measure of x, which was the angle of every B section.</p>

<p>Overall, I think I got -0 in math, anywhere from -2 to about -4 for CR, and about -2 to -4 for writing again.</p>

<p>So far I counted 1 wrong CR (and maybe another), and 1 wrong writing for sure, but I’m sure I’ve made more stupid/careless errors while speeding somewhere along the road.</p>

<p>I don’t know how these scores correlate to the actual scaled values.</p>

<p>@crib –> go to the top of ur buddy list and find “group chat”</p>

<p>then type in psats09</p>

<p>f(x) = 0 means y = 0…there were four x-intercepts</p>

<p>@ cribelle: Thanks, got it.</p>

<p>Thanks Light Airen. (:</p>

<p>What was the other number? I got 2,4,8 and three possibilities.</p>

<p>32.5 for the value of X
14 miles Mike ran
171 numbers that contain 0 between 99 and 1000
22 was the area of the unshaded cube
120 was the surface area of cube
166 tokens the girl could have had (each toek 6 points and she had less than 1000)
1/6 was Y/Z
14 was the venn diagram
290 peopel who didn’t quit
10098 sum even numbers 4 - 2002
30 is the angle of B
$2.5 was the how much the corn would cost
III only for that 1/(2x+1)
lX-4l=5
6 was the perimeter of the paralellogram
ab was the area of triangle
10d was peaches
24 was the diameter of a area of 144pi
f(3)=0=G(2)
4 for how many values when F(x)=0 when given a graph
1 value for X when 3X+4=6
4 values for wich a^b because (2^6, 4^3, 8^2, 61^1)</p>

<p>Omgosh, I missed 61^1…wow</p>

<p>The other possibility was 64.</p>

<p>Because 64 ^ 1 is 64.</p>

<p>I feel so dumb for missing that. Epic Fail.</p>

<p>^Luminouzz. Thanks. </p>

<p>AHHHHH. I think I failed the math section!</p>

<p>WAIT the one with the four congruent squares, each had 5 cm area, that was a surface area question, not an area question, so the answer was 5*4 = 20, * 6 (cuz there are 6 sides) = 120
Is that right</p>

<p>How do I join the chatroom from AIM? I’m not very good at this</p>

<p>^^^^Yes, I KNOW I failed the math section. I feel stupid for missing 64^1. I mean really? Wow.</p>

<p>for the spinner, 1/3 means the angles of all the B sections add up to 120, and there are 4 b sections, so each section is 30.</p>

<p>for the writing with workers on strike, i put “the changes have angered workers, threatening a general strike” ?</p>

<p>@ Opie - Just use Meebo. The link is meebo.com, and log in like you usally do with your AIM screenname and join the chatroom from my instructions above. There’s about 6-8 people in here already.</p>

<p>do we have a similar list for writing and reading, right now i think the only writing i have wrong is the myself, me one.</p>
