March SAT Math Thread

<p>okay hmm was there another volume problem where the answer was just 15, not sqr 15 perhaps in an experimental section because I don’t remember that 3x, x, 2 problem and I’m sure I would’ve gotten it if I saw it…</p>

<p>was that problem at the top right corner of the page?</p>

<p>does anybody remember the answer to the ratio question
something like 4:7
i can’t seem to remember the answer choices either</p>

<p>anyone remember a question about Juanita’s quiz scores where they gave a list of numbers and told the median and the mode? it may have been experimental because i had an experimental math section. i hope it was because i thought the question didn’t make much sense…</p>

<p>Experimental</p>

<p>Does anyone know what I’m talking about when I mention a question with a big triangle next to a smaller triangle and the big triangle is divided into two and it says something like ED=8, AE=8, and CD=4 what is the length of KE? And I think the answer was 16/3? Or was this experimental?</p>

<p>@gramster: that’s experimental</p>

<p>well i guess someone would put 4/2 because they didn’t feel like doing the incredibly hard math to reduce it all the way down to 2 lol ;)</p>

<p>I’ve been known to do thing like that on tests. Sometimes you’re too focused on solving the actual problem to remember extraneous things like reducing.</p>

<p>But I’m pretty sure the official policy is that answers do <em>not</em> have to be in simplest form.</p>

<p>^^^^^it is official policy, it says so in my collegeboard SAT book</p>

<p>AHHHHHHH I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I GOT!!! i can’t wait anymore, i’m trying to remember what answers i put down but i’m getting them mixed up, i think i might have gotten an 800 on math, but i’m not sure. HOW DO YOU GUYS TAKE IT!?!?!?!</p>

<p>wow, thanks thats really helpful!</p>

<p>no it isn’t. :&lt;/p>

<p>Was “none of the above” an answer for one of the questions where we had to pick I, II, or III?</p>

<p>and also, what was the question that had the answer: (x-y)^2>0 (choice II) will be positive, out of 3 options</p>

<p>^None of the answers are ‘none of the above’. And there usually isn’t.</p>

<p>@concertpianist - i picked “none of the above” for one of the answers and i definitely remember having the options I, II, III and none of the above.</p>

<p>I just can’t seem to remember the context of the question</p>

<p>and i know for a fact that it wasn’t the Tanya question</p>

<p>None of the answers were “none of the above”.</p>

<p>then what was the question that had the answer "(X-Y)^2 > 0 is positive (choice II)?</p>

<p>was it asking “which one of these must be true?” or something like that</p>

<p>it was only one of the choices</p>

<p>I think either 1 or 2 don’t remember which one.</p>

<p>however I do remember that the choice was this</p>

<p>(X-Y)^2 >0.</p>

<p>NewAccount are you sure “none of these” was not an answer? i could have sworn i checked that problem many times…but yet i can’t seem to recall which problem it was.</p>
