<p>I get 10 for problem 6.</p>

<p>^ u're correct. 6 8 10 is just another way of representing the pythagorean theorem lol. 5 is the radius, so in this case, 10 is the correct answer.</p>

<p>problem 6 is 10</p>

<p>The answer to 6 is 10. Remember that in the function s(x), x represents the diameter, not the radius.</p>

<p>Ok i got everything except for number 1.</p>

<p>I think #1 is A..</p>

<p>yea... #1 is def A</p>

<p>1 is (A).
A: Salvo - Attack
B: Encore - Additional performance due to audience demands P:
C: Palliative - Care given to sick people
D: Concession - Giving-in reward, I can't really explain
E: Demurral - Draw-back (as in, drawing back, avoiding something)</p>

<p>Since it's a "spirited verbal attack", the answer must be A.</p>

<p>1)a
2)d
3)e
4)d
5)a
6)10</p>
