<p>Aw @Tkaler1 thank you sooo much!!! I really appreciate it! Sorry I am just post-SAT freaking out. Do you by ANY chance remember ANY of the other options for </p>

<p>Latitude lines are spaced about 70 miles apart, so they are ______ for general regions, but not to ______ locations. (adequate/pinpoint)</p>

<p>Due to the directors _____ attitude, even the most high-maintenance performers could work with her without conflict. (easy going) </p>

<p>( I KNOW THESE ARE LIKE THE MOST BASIC QUESTIONS ON THE WHOLE TEST! I am just blanking out/ getting myself worried)</p>

<p>Thank you!!</p>

<p>@Tkaler1 especially the latitude one!</p>

<p>I’m sorry, I can’t recall any other answers right now. I’ll give it some thought and try to come up with some</p>

<p>I gave the SAT in India. It was totally different. :stuck_out_tongue:
Went well though
Writing can be 800
Math I think I got 1 wrong.
CR so depends on the scale (Hopefully 700 atleast)
So yea 2250+ is surely possible.</p>

<p>I have two questions in MATH and one for CRITICAL READING.</p>

<p>1) MATH: What is the solution to:
What is the sum of a + b + c + d + e + f of the three triangles? I put 360 degrees and I’m pretty sure it is correct but I would like to know WHY because the question doesn’t specify what type of triangle each one is.</p>

<p>2) MATH: What is the solution to:
g(x) = sq.rt 25x and g(4x) = k sq.rt x What is the value of k?
What is the correct answer AND please EXPLAIN your answer by plugging in X = 1 to find the solution.</p>

<p>3) CRITICAL READING: In the passage involving telescopes, the author describes the following situation: “Once I received my new high-powered telescope, I could see the golden nebulas, ursula major, hot and cold gases in distant galaxies, etc. These sights ballooned my system of what is plausible.”</p>

<p>What was the answer to this question (described above) of what the author felt about seeing the universe through his new telescope: Was it A. (hard to believe) or B. (difficult to take in)?
I believe the answer is (difficult to take in) for this reason… The author knows that there are many different occurrences in the galaxy, therefore ruling out (hard to believe) as an answer choice. The answer, in my opinion, is (difficult to take in) because the author is shocked that there are SO MANY different phenomena across the galaxies, that it ballooned his system with what he thought was possible.</p>

<p>Please give me an answer to this question and explain WHY your answer choice is correct. Thanks</p>

<p>it was hard to believe I don’t remember the reason but lots of people have reached the general consensus.</p>

<p>I put “hard to believe” I understand your logic, but for some reason I do not remember “difficult to take in” as an answer choice. I’m pretty sure if it was an answer choice, I would’ve had a very hard time choosing. Are you sure that choice was there? </p>

<p>No matter what types of triangles the four conjoined triangles were, they would always add up to be 360. I quickly solved the problem by assigning angles of 60/60/60, and it was 360. Then, I did 40/60/80 and it was still 360.</p>

<p>Scroll up on page 35 of the thread and you will see the answer to your second math question.</p>

<p>Ughhhh… Teachers should give students a weekend off from homework if they take the SATs. I’ll be up until 3… And I’ll take the finals sleep-deprived… And I’m whining here because all my friends are asleep…</p>

<p>What did you guys get for the trapezoid with the 15 60 and the 120 60 angles i bisected iy and got sixty root three</p>

<p>Never mind that wasnt it</p>

<p>I dont think recent invention was right cant remember what i put but it was the telescope one right?</p>

<p>telescopes were invented in the 1600’s and the narrative was set in the 50’s or 60’s so how could that one be “recent”…
i remember the answer being apparent at the time but i cant remember what i put</p>

<p>Something about being reflective and informative?</p>

<p>@Agarsin
That’s what I remember putting down.</p>

<p>I didn’t take the test, and I haven’t read the question except as it was presented in the post, but I would go for “difficult to take in” as the preferred choice of the two given. 'Plausible" is a blend of meaning between ‘possible’ and ‘believable’. Think, ‘not proven, but could be believed.’<br>
The phrase “difficult to take in” does not limit the possibility of the difficulty to ‘unbelievable’. It could be difficult because the truth is overpowering, awesome, revealing unimagined possibilities, etc.
I think “difficult to believe” is contrary to the sense of “balooned (expanded) my system of what is plausible (potentially believable)”.</p>

<p>Agrasin, Would you be willing to fill me in about the essay?</p>

<p>Can any of you recall how high were the curves?, especially those of math and CR, as it was the test we just took yesterday, the international one.</p>
