PSAT Wednesday,October 17- How was it??

<p>hey what did everyone get for the (r,s) math question?
it was like if it's reflected across the x axis then the following must be true or something like that?
that was the only one i was kind of skeptical about.</p>

<p>I put S=0 because I thought the Y axis had to have been zero for it to intersect at the same place after being reflected. Don't know if it's right thought, I thought it was too simple of an answer when I was bubbling it.</p>

<p>there was one about the government building a stadium, i remember my answer starting with in hopes of....does anyone else?</p>

<p>yeah in hopes of...there was only one answer choice starting with that right?</p>

<p>The one with the bill was definitely "its" because it does not match up with "opponents," which is the subject, not "bill."</p>

<p>Wait, with the one with "in the hopes of" was there one in which it was just "hopes." I remember I put one with including "hopes" but not sure whether it was "hopes" or "in the hopes of"</p>

<p>What was the Math one with the (r,s) reflection, was it rs=-1?</p>

<p>I haven't seen one, but I took a course and the teacher reiterated that "being" is usually not good for an improving sentence, but it's grammatically correct, and therefore, ok for an error-id.</p>

</p>

<p>I put r=0. </p>

<p>But I'm probably wrong. :(</p>

<p>ya the its being passed question is driving me crazy</p>

<p>Apotheosis: that's what I put..but idk.</p>

<p>What did you guys put for the Alexandria question on the writing section? It was something like "The library of Alexandria thrived on the coast of Egypt...etc."</p>

<p>I put no error. Anyone else?</p>

<p>I think I did too.</p>

<p>I think in the original question "on the coast of Egypt" was at the end of the sentence not right after the library of Alexandria. I think I put D--where it said "on the coast of Egypt" right after "the library of Alexandria thrived."</p>

<p>what about the fill in the blank with answer choices of eitehr brainchild or innovation....which was right arent they ythe same</p>

<p>brainchild : a product of one's creative imagination</p>

<p>are you sure...doesnt innovation mean the same thing</p>

<p>yes that is the actual definition of brainchild (i can see how you thought it was innovation though)</p>

<p>innovation:
1 : the introduction of something new
2 : a new idea, method, or device</p>

<p>Yeah, I guessed brainchild as well. lol
That one was kind of weird.</p>

<p>oh good haha....ya i never expected to see that word on a psat/sat</p>
