Forten (the black businessman in Philadelphia)

<p>Visual imagery/the mind completes images/constellations
[ul]
[<em>]name of constellation in southern hemisphere = "drawing compass"
[</em>]when he says something like "i still look in wonder at the constellations...i learned long ago to pick out so-and-so constellations" - he DID NOT show a connection to the Greeks and DID NOT reminisce about childhood days, he was talking about his ability to see something in the night sky

MC: woman's shoe size = 7; the distance between B and C on the triangle laid over the stream = 120/root(3); number of points that y = absval(x) has in common with y = x^2 is 3; if line has (j, k) and (2j, 2k), function is y = k/j x; 10 digit number, every digit has to be either a 4 or a 5, the number can never be prime; if hypotenuse is 2 greater than sum of legs, then root(x^2 + y^2) = x + y + 2

<p>Answers I have issues with</p>

constellations/mind completing images:
- when he goes from talking about how the mind completes images to talking about how "maybe the mind does this to fulfill a subconscious need for completion and the mind something something nothingness" he goes from scientific explanation to psychoanalytic
[/quote]
</p>
<p>No, this was neurological to psychological. There was a lot of analysis about the physical effect of such imagery. </p>

- Michaelangelo could do work "quickly and with ease"
[/quote]
</p>
<p>No, this is incorrect. There was nothing in the passage about the speed of execution, and the wording of the two sentences had something to do with the Master leaving. Thus, it's "work best alon."</p>

<p>No, he's just atypical. Where do you get 'insincere' from!?</p>

Grid-ins: area of shaded region in illustration with 3 squares = 3/16; the one with the parabola had a vertex at (5, -4) and it asked one value where y = 0, i put 2.94, idk if this is right (my function was y = x^2 - (81/8)x + (169/8), which satisifies the requirement that f(1) = f(9) = 12)
[/quote]
hahahahahaha why did you do a regression with only two points</p>
<p>2.94 is never an SAT answer. 3, 7 are the real answers.
[quote]
if its not in list X, its not in list Y (contrapositive)
[/quote]
</p>
<p>And this is my biggest issue with your 'answers'. You misunderstand the concept of the contrapositive:</p>
<p>If p, then q.
If not q, then not p. (contrapositive)</p>
<p>If q, then p. (converse)
If not p, then not q. (inverse)</p>
<p>The answer is If it's not in list y, it's not in list x, which is the definition of the contrapositive. Look it up. You're giving the inverse of the statement, which is the contrapositive of the converse, which is not necessarily true.</p>
<p>i almost put topographical vs meteorological or w/e it was, but i think i put intuitive or something... does anyone remember the other choices?</p>
