PSAT '09 Form W Thread

<p>^Huh, then maybe I got it right. I got something that had 24 as the denominator and then I reduced it. Is that what you got too?</p>

<p>wat was the answer to the question with jagu and his intention? the choices were like nostalgic, anxious, articulate, industrious, and something else.</p>

<p>i put anxious, and im pretty sure the question said he was all of the following EXCEPT:</p>

<p>ur answers?</p>

<p>What was the answer to the one where it asked how many other points can be made so that it’s from 5 from B and 3 from x?
I put none</p>

<p>Kinmin, it was articulate because it said something about how he wasn’t saying anything. It wasn’t anxious because it specifically said he was worried.</p>

<p>@fresh i think it’s one.</p>

<p>fresh101: I’m pretty sure that answer was 1. If you think about it, the reflection across the Y axis would have given you the same distance.</p>

<p>Yea but it wouldn’t have made it so that the distance was still 3 units from x</p>

<p>hmm, thats true, i think i missed the part with him not speaking, i just thought he wasnt anxious because he was drumming and smiled and stuff, but i see why it can be articulate…</p>

<p>fresh101: I think it could because its basically the exact same point, only flipped positively so it would be the same distance just with like positive or negative and since the distance formula takes absolute value into account I think it’s 1.</p>

<p>for the story part about teh boy who worked in the restaurant, did the other waiters initially treat him with disdain…? what was it?</p>

<p>I’m 99% sure the answer is none. The two functions do intersect but its like 1.333333 after. I don’t think that counts.</p>

<p>But you weren’t allowed to change the position of any numbers. You were supposed to find other points that had the same distance as 5 from B and 3 from x without changing B and X
.</p>

<p>I’m 99% sure the answer is none. The two functions do intersect but its like 1.333333 after. I don’t think that counts.</p>

<p>I’m 100% sure it’s none. </p>

<p>Silverturtle, what did you put?</p>

<p>@Helena, I think it was resentment because they thought that the boy was trying to take their work.</p>

<p>im pretty sure it was 1. because it does not include the third point…</p>

<p>I put disdain…What did ohter ppl put?</p>

<p>I put disdain, there was another choice I was deciding between, I forgot what it was tho. Something similar tho</p>

<p>oh… well, i dont remember what i put… i looked over it too many times. :(</p>

<p>it was between disdain and resentment</p>

<p>For the one with anxious I think it was anxious because you can be articulate in your work, too? It didn’t seem like he was anxious at all, in fact it states later in the passage that he thought his life wasn’t going to go anywhere</p>
