<p>I think Mrs. Ferguson is right…if the sentence is like Shobhit2006 says…it would have to be the past tense of pass and therefore it would be passed</p>
<p>No, it was past.</p>
<p>The sentence was :</p>
<p>“As I go _____ on my bike, I blah,blah…”</p>
<p>past</p>
<p>“As i go past on my bike” sounds weird to me.
but by definiation go past- implies past by</p>
<p>i dont think that was the sentence because it sounds weird that way</p>
<p>this is how i see it…I might just be wrong but i dont see how “past by” would work because in every situation it would have to be a verb and therefore be “passed”</p>
<p>that was not the exact sentence meanvaluetheorem, the sentence was worded in such a way that past by “sounded” right…but i dunno, unless someone remembers the EXACT sentence, I don’t think we’ll ever know (unless someone here gets a 36 on the English sentence of course and tells us what he/she put)</p>
<p>anyone have a for sure answer? I put [pi/2, 3pi/2] and im depending on math to bring me up to a good score. anyone?</p>
<p>ya that “past by” was a tricky one, but it was written english vs. spoken english. The correct answer was “passed”</p>
<p>actually nvm, i think meanvaluetheorem’s sentence was the one</p>
<p>I put for that sentence:</p>
<p>As I go <em>past by</em>, I see the newspaper blah blah blah</p>
<p>Maybe past by is too wordy and therefore the answer is past? i dunno… =( i hope it’s past by. I feel past by gives a better sense of “where” the person goes…</p>
<p>it can’t be as i go passed or as i go passed by, b/c passed itself is a verb.</p>
<p>the questions was sin(x)cos(1-x)=sin(x)…the answer was 0 pi/2 3pi/2 and something else</p>
<p>sorry i meant 1-cosx</p>
<p>yah i can understand it may seem wordy but it gives a sense of direction.</p>
<p>“not many people including myself even knew what glint meant.”</p>
<p>Add me to that boat :(</p>
<p>“Past by” is never correct, except maybe as an adjective in strange cases. “Past” and “by” are both adverbs in that sentence, and they mean the same thing. You EITHER “go past” or “go by”.</p>
<p>If the verb is “go”, the answer is “past”.</p>
<p>These are all correct:
You go/went past.
You go/went by.
You pass/passed by.
You pass/passed.</p>
<p>Technically, I think you can say “I passed past”, but that sounds dumb.</p>
<p>ah yea you’re right mrs. ferguson</p>
<p>grr…i hope 1 wrong in English is still a 36 :'(</p>
<p>another question that was asked b4 was the science question. I believe it was the % of mass of the sun that’s in the core. </p>
<p>That was 50%</p>
<p>But the one I was wondering about was the last question on one of the science passages where they said that if they aim the light thing at the moon, what would d=?</p>
<p>The answer choices were like d=5, 20, 50, 200. I picked d=5 which someone else did as well on the other thread…does any one know what the answer to this was?</p>
<p>“These are all correct:
You go/went past.
You go/went by.
You pass/passed by.
You pass/passed.”</p>
<p>yea i put passed by</p>
<p>i put d=5 also</p>
<p>The one about the dry ice…was it that it goes from solid to liquid to gas. Because I thought it was under a high pressure.</p>
