<p>Here are a few of the answers I put… in no particular order. Please tell me what I missed and what other people got. </p>
<p>Form W</p>
<p>=MATH=
1)Cube with volume of 10
The answer is 640 because if the side of the second cube is four times the side of the first, the ratio of volumes should be 1^3 : 4^3, or a 1:64 ratio. Since the first cube had a volume of 10, the second must be 640.</p>
<p>2)Letter Letter Number AA2
The answer is 26 x 26 x 10 or 6760 since repeated letters are allowed.</p>
<p>3) Average of 30 numbers
I forgot the exact question, but I put 9.1 I believe. You were supposed to find the sum of the two sets and then divide by 30.</p>
<p>4) Smallest to largest
rtx, rt(x+1), rt(x) + 1</p>
<p>5) rt(x + 7) - 5 = Positive integer
I put 42, but there are other possible answers.</p>
<p>6) Sports and Drama
You had to subtract the sum of everyone listed from 250 to find x. x was 20 and you had to add that to 21 so the final answer was 41.</p>
<p>7)(x-2)(x+2) Factor
I put -400. Expand (x+2)(x-2) to get x^2 - 4. Distribute with 100 to get 100x^2 - 400.</p>
<p>8) The number between .3 and .4
.35, just take the average.</p>
<p>9) The January sale
(1200 + 2^5) - (1200 + 2^1) = 30</p>
<p>10) Parking Lot
The length is 315. Add up two widths (x) and two lengths (3x) to get 8x total, or the perimeter, which is 840. (840/8) x 3 = 315.</p>
<p>11) Music store
n > 20. You had to set up 6n > 3n+60.</p>
<p>12) 50 days after Sunday
Monday (Yea, I counted on my fingers for this one just to make sure.)</p>
<p>13) Popcorn sale
Month 4. Overall sales when up while the sale of (drinks?) went down. At no other point in the graph did the sale of popcorn increase that much.</p>
<p>=READING=
- “Very human and very understandable”
I interpreted this as sympathetic.</p>
<p>2) In the one about the girl trying to talk to her father, she spoke with urgency because she knew he was about to be distracted.</p>
<p>3) The girl’s father talked a lot in the country, but was reserved in the city. (His daughter wished he talked more in the city because there were people she could also talk to.)</p>
<p>4) Curtail (Guessed)</p>
<p>5) Apocryphal (Guessed)</p>
<p>6) Affronted (Guessed)</p>
<p>7) Fisherman’s response was to qualify his earlier statement, imo. I think he wanted to imply that he wanted what’s best for the girl and he assumed that she wanted to go to school and just wanted to make sure. </p>
<p>=WRITING=
- I put No Error for the First Lady sentence. (Guessed)</p>
<p>2) Ensured not insured (Diction error?/Guessed)</p>
<p>3) For the last question I put the example in which monkeys use tools to get the food or whatever since it was earlier claimed that they used tools and didn’t consciously think about value of these tools.</p>
<p>Is it me or was the Writing section harder than the Writing section on the October SAT (last Saturday)?</p>
<p>I just hope I get 770/800 on Math and get low 700 or higher for Reading and Writing to make the cut-off. Living in the Silicon Valley in California doesn’t really help though. :P</p>
