<p>does anyone have a legit answer to my question?</p>
<p>why cant you use cosine?</p>
<p>which was the truck/pyramid question?</p>
<p>i can’t recall…</p>
<p>i’m lucky if i got a 680 in math… sighs… this math would’v ebeen relatively easier if i didn’t have to redo the problems from 1-10 like forty times… that pictograph question was ■■■■■■■■… (what’s median hourly wage? count up the 5 dollar bills/2?) because i did that. and got the difference was 25… and saw the closest one of that was 50 lol… and then i had to draw the circle/ which point would be in the interior of the circle problem like 5 times… it was 1,1? (forget the signs)</p>

<p>You used the wrong equation…they asked for the other line.</p>
<p>
You were solving for the opposite side.</p>
<p>yeah mde, i got 1,1 as well it was the only one without any value of 4 or whatever, i rushed through it so i hope that’s right :p</p>
<p>and i porbably got in the 600’s for math as well, dont sweat it, i’ve already had 2 confirmed wrong pretty much</p>
<p>Pictograph was 50 and interior i think was (-1,1)</p>
<p>Pictograph:
20<em>17.5 –> 2</em>175 –> 350
40<em>7.5 –> 2</em>2<em>10</em>7.5 –> 300</p>
<p>Interior you had to realize that the x and y values had to be inside (-3,3) and that would have eliminated a lot of the choices.</p>
<p>Indeed, I was so relieved when I found out it was because I had left 6 blank on that one. Now in total, I have 5 blanks. One section accounted for more than half. Horrible. (Truck/Pyramid = Ex.)</p>
<p>oh wow that was a bad mistake. ty anyway</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>There were other ways to figure out the width and depth, and one of those two formed the other part of the triangle.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s the problem, you should have used tangent. 8 was the hypotenuse.</p>
<p>**** so now i’m going to have a sub 700 in writing reading and math… =\ so i’m going to have to retake and probably improve all of them to 700… and the best way for reading at this point is. through Sc and math i just have to wake up and stop taking my damn time >.></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Haha trig always works, you weren’t doing it right</p>
<p>You got the right answer to your problem, but it wanted the length of the tangent. You solved for hypotenuse. </p>
<p>So using the 8 you got, use pythagorean and you get sqrt 48 or 4root3</p>
<p>How is pictograph 50? Please explain?</p>
<p>well did anyone get that thing with the multiples was it 60?</p>
<p>Wait, what IS this truck/pyramid problem?</p>
<p>driscol’s got it.</p>
<p>It was #20. I skipped, so I only caught a glimpse, but the question were just plain confusing.</p>
<p>It should have been your section #5.</p>
<p>My order was</p>
<p>W,CR, Math, Math, ?, ? , CR, Math, W</p>
<p>Something along those lines.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Oh, that one! It was E. 8 did not go into it evenly.</p>
<p>ilikerice- yeah, 60</p>
<p>seriously, what was the truck/pyramid question!?!?!</p>
<p>Reading this thread makes me want to suicide.</p>
