<p>yes i think so…so my question is…it was -32 not 32?</p>

<p>1, -2, 4, -8, 16, -32</p>

<p>was it E? or</p>

102

<p>yes one was the first numba. answer was -32 im pretty sure</p>

103

<p>Was the question of the rectangle inscribed in the triangle with sidelenths 10root(2) searching for the area? Answer was 50, right?</p>

104

<p>hm… i think it was -32</p>

105

<p>no. it was (-32).</p>

106

<p>yes the first number in the sequence is one, meaning the sixth term is -32.</p>

107

<p>anyone care to explain this problem?</p>

<p><a href=“ImageShack - Best place for all of your image hosting and image sharing needs”>ImageShack - Best place for all of your image hosting and image sharing needs;

<p>i might have messed up the exact thing but you get the point</p>

108

<p>the one with the perpendicular…NONE OF THE ANSWERS WORKED!!! none of the slopes were negative reciprocals of the original slope!!!</p>

109

<p>does anyone remember a graph one with 3x=4y-5 or something like that? i didn’t have time to read it properly, i guessed 16. what was the answer?</p>

110

<p>So does anyone remember that (R^2)st=200, rst=40 problem? They asked you which was was not a possible answer…I believe r,s, and t has to be integers.</p>

111

<p>Guys…shaded rectangle in the triangle? what was the answer?</p>

112

<p>game,</p>

<p>no, actually they did give you two with a slope that was negative reciprocal.</p>

113

<p>i put 10 on that color problem and i was pretty sure at the time that was right. i thought it was asking for how many color combinations for which 1-2 and 2-1 would be the samething.</p>

<p>yes there was a reciprocal…i cant remember though right now the correct answer.</p>

114

<p>the slope of the original was -1/3, and one of the answers had a slope of 3</p>

115

<p>the one with the slope, y=3x+6 because 3 was the neg reciprocal of -1/3</p>

116

<p>so the answer choice A or E for -32 or 32 one…</p>

<p>E?</p>

117

<p>they gave u only 1 wiht a slope that was a negative reciprocal.
if they gave u two, tehn both would be perpendicular to the original segment.
i think the slope of the perpendicular segment was 3</p>

118

<p>freefree i second your question, 100??</p>

119

<p>The shaded rectangle was 50.</p>

120

<p>what was the answer to the one which asked for a possible length of one of the segments, and there was two overlapping segments of 3.5 and 4.5?</p>
