Yeah there were the chooses of a) 30, b) 31, c)35 and so on. I choose A) 30
NOOOOOOOOOO
I knew how to do the question about a/b = .288 but I answered for the value of b, not a 
So instead of 36 i wrote 125 >:(

No, thats not true. Lines AB and CD are the bases of a trapezoid. AB on top, CD on bottom. and the slope of side BD, on the right side, is -5/3. The question asked what is the slope of line AC, if the length of line CD>AB and BD=AC. Which is obviousiy +5/3. And it did not include “what is a POSSIBLE answer” It rather said what is THE length of side AC
I chose 31, I think. The whole thing would be 60 to 90, and since there’s a definite median, the set would have 31 numbers, not 30.
Also, for the Zen one, I did not choose that. I think I chose something about different styles? I forgot the exact answer choices.
ok, but the question was g - l, where g is the highest number in the set and l is the lowest… so I chose 30. I’m aware of problems where its (g-l) + 1…but I don’t think that was the case even though the problem was like #14
Guys please help me… I think I screwed up my essay
the promt was :
whether Young people should focus on one talent
introduction: normal background and three part thesis
My examples were:
Neurobiology- Eric Huber a famous neurobiologist discovered the connection between math and music and leaving out one or the other would be detrimental to the other (worded a lot better)
Athenian literature- in the moral of many stories such as Oedipus Rex, greek authors emphasized the importance of not focusing on one thing too much. Oedipus Rex in particular demonstrated one tragic flaw in particular, focusing too much on fixing the city and not himself
College Admissions- harvard admissions directer “John Mccormick,” argued that only people who have many skills will get accepted into college and go on to be successful
I had a good intro, 3 developed body paragraphs and i had no space at the end for a conclusion( i filled up both pages) What do you guys think i got… please help I’m freaking out
Lines AD and BC were the bases, since they had slopes of 0. I thought it said that BD and AD were equal?
Can someone answer CarlosBlack’s question?
stephen jk did you connect it back to the question?
@MasterMaestro no, just in the intro, and i concluded every body paragraph. I filled both pages but left no room for a conclusion what score do you think ill get?
Tell me how your body paragraphs were structured. If you conclude them, then you should’ve included evidence and analysis.
@catepillargiraf
RHSclassof16 saysthat it was number 35 and I think that it was in fact number 35. The only other answer choice I remember is “things were a lot different when my mom was in college” or something like that.
Does it really matter if I only included one supporting example for my essay (about leaders)? I had a pretty decent intro, body, and concluding paragraph but only one example.
The example was the Iran Nuclear Treaty, if that matters.
Did anyone get 10 and 1/6 for the shoe question or was it just me??
^ I got 10 and 1/3
@tonystarkofwinterfell The median of 75 one was 30. I literally wrote the whole set of numbers out lol.
@Hermit9 Are we talking about the same problem? it was #18 on the grid in
@concreteolives I got 10 and 1/3
@tonystarkofwinterfell I think you actually misread the median one. I think they wanted you to find the difference between the first and last number of the set (90 - 60 = 30).
The shoe one was 10 and 1/3
The trapezoid one was 5/3 because it stated which sides had slopes of 0(which means they were bases) and that the two connecting lines were equal in length.
The one with the the smallest value of G-L and the median of a set of numbers is 75, the answer was 30.
To the get the smallest value of G-L, it means that the smallest number has to be as large as possible and the greatest number has to be as small as possible. If the set has 31 numbers, and the median is 75, it means there are 15 numbers to the LEFT of 75, and 15 numbers to the RIGHT of 75, which would add up to 31 numbers. The lowest value to the left of the 75 we want as large as possible, so the 15th number to the left would be 60. (75-15). To the right of 75, we want the largest number to be as small as possible, which means 75+15.
So the smallest value of G-L would be 90-60=30
