Dec 1st CR Version II (Brain functions, photography, father artist...) Discussion

<p>@musicisllife73 well now that makes me a feel a bit better :slight_smile: Devil’s advocate doesn’t work all the time…</p>

<p>@thenerdyjew I hope you’re right sorta 'cause I just stalked your profile and you said you got a 760 on CR Oct haha</p>

<p>I swear we are all talking about 2 different questions that are super similar. Because I would be willing to bet quite a bit of money that 6 was used as a comparing feature.</p>

<p>@VanillaThunder
ikr what a scam. I swear that we didn’t misread that crap at all, it was just wrongly worded. I get the feeling that the ā€˜official’ answers are 25 and 49, but this is definitely messed up</p>

<p>@VanillaThunder, that could definitely be the case. Something similar happened when I took it in October. The wording was different by one word, but it changed the answer entirely.</p>

<p>I’ve seen a few questions here that are very similar to what I saw today. Like the triangle with the answer supposedly 12sqrt3, I had one where it was like 6sqrt2</p>

<p>I think something like that may have happened on my first attempt in January. On the QAS, it says ā€œsuch and such question was omitted from scoringā€, but it was the only one in the section indicated like that.</p>

<p>Oh, and that triangle question with the two squares with side length 6, equilateral triangle, and the last triangle, I got 6sqrt(3).</p>

<p>How does a horror film director use those same skills in writing a children’s book?
It was clearly the movie critic using her classic style in reviewing books.
I also put play on words</p>

<p>I can not wait until I get the Q+A for the answer to that stupid question.</p>

<p>Movie critic! That’s what I put! Thanks @kingboy!</p>

<p>Yeah I’m gonna be thinking about it for the next 19 days lol. Probably gonna fail all my final exams just from being ****ed off</p>

<p>@musicislife how come it’s not 12 root3? Did you forget to double the answer?</p>

<p>Hey just a general question, this is my junior year, first time taking the SAT (except that Duke thing) and was wondering if I should use the free score sends. I know where I plan on applying, ect. I will be sending one for sure because of summer dual enrollment, but besides that what do you guys suggest doing?</p>

<p>I’m with VanillaThunder on the factor question. >_<
Or maybe I misread it? If so… smh.</p>

<p>Anyone know what a -6 in writing would most likely translate to?</p>

<p>@VanillaThunder
Just wait to see what your score is first. You’ll be pleasantly surprised when you’ve missed all the easy questions like myself. Third time taking this damn thing and random questions like that have gotten me -2 M both times</p>

<p>Frosting probably a 660-680 depending.</p>

<p>@megan702, when you have the triangle, you can use geometry to find out that the angles are 30, 30, and 120. The two sides that are equal are 6 each. By seeing that it’s a 30-60-90 triangle, you can find that half of the last side is 3sqrt(3). Double that and you get 6sqrt(3). Perhaps you inadvertantly doubled in your head, and then doubled again on paper? :/</p>

<p>What did you get as the answer to the (a+1)/(b+1) and a/b+1 question?</p>

<p>I put 6 square root 3. I think others confirmed this earlier in the thread.
It is an isoceles triangle with two side lengths of 6 and the bottom side length is the target.
The angles opposite the side lengths of 6 are 30 degrees while the angle opposite the bottom length is 120 degrees. splitting the triangle into two separate 30 60 90 degree triangles shows that the angle opposite the length of 6 is 90 degrees. that means the length of the side opposite the angle of 30 degrees is 3 and the length opposite the angle of 60 degrees is 3 square root 3. Multiply 3 square root 3 by 2 and you get the total length of the bottom length.</p>

<p>a=3, b=11.</p>

<p>are we talking about number 20 here?? shoot i might have done that accidentally. ***</p>
