<p>Hate to bring it up again, but…</p>

<p>"I put 1/2. It was like this…</p>

<p>1/m < 1/k < 0</p>

<p>So I used k= -4 and m= -2, and it was definitely what is the least one divided by the greatest one, so let’s say m/k. m/k = -2/-4 = 1/2"</p>

<p>If that was the question, then the answer is 2. If the least one divided by the greatest one, k(-4) < m(-2) so -4/-2 = 2</p>

82

<p>It was m/k slipstream…I’m sorry. I made m=-2 and k=-4, thus the answer is 1/2.</p>

83

<p>Oh, i grasped onto the “least one divided by the greatest one” part. </p>

<p>DARNIT!..I want an 800 math!</p>

84

<p>in a past discussion everyone was glossing over one question. Everyone seemed to get the answer of inadvertantly and accidental for a sc. I had this answer but changed it because the sentence said that the sister contradicted him so the words need to be opposites… did anyone else get this</p>

85

<p>By the way, the October math section is taken from two sources (one from 2002 March, one from 2003 November), depending on which version you get; the math is pretty EASY this time; i pretty sure the top math curve will be (I’m at least 90% confident):</p>

<p>raw scale
60 800
59 790
58 770
57 750
56 730
55 720
54 710
53 700</p>

86

<p>did everyone have a question about how many 3 digit numbers 3 adn 4 can make if you use both at least once? or was that question an exprimental question?</p>

87

<p>I remember that and it was not eperimental. I believe the answer was 4, 334, 343, 434, 443. Because you could not have all three the same.</p>

88

<p>Nope, it’s 6.</p>

<p>334
343
433
443
434
344</p>

<p>"If you took the SAT Reasoning Test on Saturday, October 9, 2004, you had one of two section orders. Your test was organized like this:</p>

<p>math (regular 5-choice questions)
verbal (long reading passage)
equating (the one that doesn’t count toward your score)
math (QC and SPR questions)
verbal (2 reading passages)
math (regular 5-choice questions)
verbal (long reading passage)
OR, like this:</p>

<p>verbal (long reading passage)
math (regular 5-choice questions)
math (QC and SPR questions)
verbal (2 reading passages)
equating (the one that doesn’t count toward your score)
verbal (long reading passage)
math (regular 5-choice questions)"</p>

<p>Mine didn’t match EITHER of those.
Hmm…</p>

90

<p>i put 8pi, for the people who didn’t take the Oct. 9 test what do u think the answer is?</p>

<p>the question was something like this(i’m 98% sure):</p>

<p>What is the area of the circle inside the largest circle minus the smallest?</p>

<p>and the areas were : 16pi, 9pi,?pi(don’t remember), and 1pi - from the biggest to smallest cirlce</p>

<p>look at the picture at this link:
<a href=“http://jophelps.port5.com/images/8pi.jpg[/url]”>http://jophelps.port5.com/images/8pi.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

91

<p>What was the answer to the question in the first section I believe, that asked for the area of the rectangle and they gave you coordinates. I think I might have screwed that one up.</p>

92

<p>no… the question was the area of the REGION inside the largest circle MINUS the smallest circle… = 15 pi.</p>

93

<p>7 more days (maybe less) until we find out. . .</p>

94

<p>I am dying from suspense…bleh.</p>

95

<p>wait i’m confused, wouldn’ tthe answer be 8 for this question:</p>

<p>“did everyone have a question about how many 3 digit numbers 3 adn 4 can make if you use both at least once? or was that question an exprimental question”</p>

<p>because u can use 3 or 4 a total of 3 times???</p>

<p>333, 334, 344,343,444,434,433,443</p>

96

<p>No. Because the question was phrased something like this: "How many distinct three digit numbers can you make with 3 and 4, if you HAVE TO use each number at least once, and something else about the positioning of the numbers or something.</p>

97

<p>Does anyone remember a fill in the blank that asked "Scientists believe that when the universe began its expansion _____ the speed of light, thus____ the notion that it was possible to travel faster than the speed of light. I put surpassed and spawning, but I remember a few people saying that exceed and belie was the answer. However belie does not make sense in this context because belie means to be in contradiction with. However I may have misread the question.</p>

98

<p>Thedude: you are right. You didn’t read it wrong. ;)</p>

99

<p>swim24, you had to use both 3&4 in EACH 3 digit number you create, so it is six.</p>

100

<p>If I misread that scentence and that possible was impossible I am going to be ****ed, for I will have made yet another stupid mistake that has kept me from 800 V.</p>
