<p>vaunted, what was the one with undeclareD?</p>

<p>3.5 is what i got i believe</p>

<p>(so angry i put exonerated instead of vaunted, having it as a verb messed me up)</p>

<p>did anyone answer introconvertible or something for a sentence completion</p>

<p>what was the sentence error one that was like "lesser than that of" some guy</p>

<p>YES! I got vaunted!!!</p>

<p>7.49 isn't acceptable. You NEED to get it exact.</p>

<p>When I calculated it out, I got 7.499999999, and put 7.49. Other people are saying they put 7.5. People who did this, did you round? Is mine acceptable?</p>

<p>does anyone know the estimated cut off for washington state? it was 219 last year right?</p>

<p>oh yeah,</p>

<p>I kept lesser than that of. I didn't pick an error, because it was comparing only two people...is that right?</p>

<p>No...you didn't calculate it right. it's JUST 15/2, so it is ONLY 7.5.</p>

<p>technologic, that's what I put (A) but everyone else i know put E, which was like "less than that" or somethin</p>

<p>How could I have gotten .00...0001 off?</p>

<p>Could someone explane the lesser than of problem?</p>

<p>219 according to <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=74297&page=45%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=74297&page=45&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Yah, lesser is not the answer. darn. i should've trusted my ear.</p>

<p><a href="http://cs.gmu.edu/%7Ehenryh/680/notes/04-Less.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://cs.gmu.edu/~henryh/680/notes/04-Less.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>less is not the superlative.</p>

<p>what abt the iceberg one? Was the last word "depends" or "depending"? All of the answer choices sounded wrong to me</p>

<p>There were 18 students? radius of 7.49?</p>

<p>for the person who got 7.49999 on the wheel one, maybe your calculator cuts pi off at a certain digit so your calculations were off by a teeny bit. If you leave pi in, you get:
45000<em>pi inches = 3000 * (circumference)
45000</em>pi = 3000<em>2</em>pi<em>r
15</em>pi=2<em>pi</em>r
15=2*r
r=15/2=7.5</p>

<p>yeah 18 students was easy. can someone please write the question for the lesser question. like as much of it you remember</p>

<p>Rickortega, 18 students is correct.</p>
