<p>Does someone have an answer for the wxyz question. I’m working it out and both of them are correct (or incorrect, as the question wanted them to be).</p>
<p>And what was the problem for this answer? 2.5 y=(k-1)^2</p>
<p>@mascara it was like “Given the equation y=k(x-1)^2, find the constant k if a point on the graph is (3,10)”</p>
<p>@Mascara for y=k(x-1)^2 for 3, 10, the answer was 5/2 or 2.5</p>
<p>@Mascara - wasn’t the question:</p>
<p>2.5=(k-x)^2, where you had to plug in a point that they provided?</p>
<p>Edit: Nevermind I think it was what cortana said.</p>
<p>Thanks guys; I couldn’t remember what it was and thought I had skipped a question or something. Why does no one remember the wxyz question, though DDDD:</p>
<p>@Mascara
Maybe you had a math experimental section.</p>
<p>I had two writing sections in a row (4 and 5 or 5 and 6)… someone please tell the first writing section was the experimental one? Or is experimental the second one…I don’t remember if the skateboard one was first or second</p>
<p>@poohbear94
The skateboard was NOT experimental. I had that section (section 6 I believe) but I had an experimental reading section.</p>
<p>The skateboard was NOT experimental, since I had it.</p>
<p>@bob12345; I thought that too, but someone told me that the wxyz question was not experimental.</p>
<p>I got a lot of dirty stares for laughing during the test when I read the word “Cocksureness”. sorry, i know im really immature…</p>
<p>@Mascara
Do you remember any additional info besides just four letters wxyz? Even the context might help me remember, but I’m quite sure I had no problem like that.</p>
<p>wxyz was not experimental… i had that section:O</p>
<p>Btw, how bad is it to mess up a fact in the essay? -_- Do they grade mostly on flow/structure/etc or the actual facts/content accuracy??</p>
<p>wxyz on a number line.
w= -1.5
x=-0.5
y=0.5
z=1.5</p>
<p>And it wanted a false statement?
I was stuck between two, ran out of time, guessed.</p>
<p>@Mascara
Oh I believe it was E either z/w^2 or w/z^2.
It was realizing that squaring any quantity will result in a positive value</p>
<p>E?
YES.
I think today is a success.
Still on track for that 2300. >:D</p>
<p>Im just hoping for 1500 + Dont care about writing.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Don’t worry…ETS definitely does not grade based on accuracy. My last essay (11) was a bunch of bull about a fabricated historical event and some fictional movies… :D</p>
<p>lol 1500 meaning CR+M? or all 3? o.o</p>
<p>oh 1500 CR/M haha i dont care about writing. i still look at it like the Old SAT as do many colleges</p>
