In q16 17:21 you found the area of half of ABD... For base you need to take double into your answer...hence C will be correct Do correct me if i m wrong

[@danielportela1308]

That is correct. In the QAS too the answer appears as C

[@dalaa5669]

Yes it must be c because he found the area of ABE instead of ABD which is the whole triangle

for number 29 couldnt B also work since x+1/3 couldnt = x? just like x-1/3 couldnt equal x? im confused on that one but i see what you did but i did it a different way and got -1/3 because when i divide x-k=3kx by x i get -k=3k?

[@danny0053]

you should not divide it this way..

[@ScalarLearning]

If you plug in -1/3 and work it out then the solution would actually equal -1/6 so this would not equal "no solution" as the question is asking for.

Why is number 38 , 9 , shouldn’t it be 10 computers since we are looking under the line of best fit

[@ScalarLearning]

I check all answers at the end of video

[@adamzaremba5709]

We were looking for values that are higher than line of best fit since question tells"line of best fit predicts values less than actual"

[@greeshmajohn9650]

for #38 don't you count the dots that are below the best fit line? and for #32 we just rearrange the numbers in numerical order and guess which numbers would fit between 8 and 11?

[@ScalarLearning]

Pretty much yes for 32, because any number in that zone will make sure 8 is in the middle, and for 38, it's the other way around, where the dots are above.

[@dhruvpatel8520]

How did you know that cosine would be in quadrant 2 for #23

[@ScalarLearning]

Because cosine is negative in quadrant 2.

[@KevinGonzalez-it2kg]

How would you have approached #16 had you read it right? My theory is just solving for ABE as you did and then multiply by 2 since ABE and ADE are the same but I don't know if that'd be right.

[@ScalarLearning]

Yes I think that's a solid approach.

[@EverythingTechTime]

For #21 I think the fastest way is just to plug in the point (0, -2) and then just solve for b

[@ScalarLearning]

That works as well!!

[@justcindyy5845]

i dont understand explain please :(

[@ragswag123]

for number 25, could you also use a system of equations? 20x+60y=390 x+y=8

[@taransrikonda6996]

Where does he plug in 27? Can you reply with the exact timestamp if possible because I might be missing it?

[@ScalarLearning]

Yes more specific question would be helpful

[@kosyudochukwu1414]

Taran Srikonda 12:28 for question 13.

[@kosyudochukwu1414]

Scalar Learning sorry about that! I was just a bit confused with why you plugged in 27 into 20L instead of 15D. It’s in 12:28

[@taransrikonda6996]

KosyUdochukwu1 It is because , for licenses, it takes him 20 minutes and when x is zero, y is 27. He used these coordinates because they are the “easiest@

[@Sara-ky4vd]

Hi I have a question. In 22:41 why didn’t we choose A?

[@sujaishan7806]

I dont understand why #36 would not have a negative in the answer since when you subtract the system of equations you get -50c=11000

[@ScalarLearning]

Actually, when you subtract the system of equations, you should be getting 50c=11000 (no negative)

[@ragswag123]

Hey, I got a question, I don't understand what question 11 is asking you to solve. Could somebody please explain it to me?

[@bharatjayamohan555]

There are exactly 5 different interval ranges, they are asking which 2 out of the 5 added will = 10. We get the 10 in the numerator by multiply 2/5 by 5 in the denominator and the numerator because it specifically says 25 data values. So (2/5 x 5/5) = 10/25. From there, we look at the answer choices and add the given interval ranges. Ex: For interval range 1-20 we would add the frequencies of those interval ranges, so 7+5 which does not = 10. Interval range 11-30 has frequencies which add up to 8, not 10. The only one that works is the 31-50 which has 8+2 = 10. lmk if you have any questions!

[@bharatjayamohan555]

so its basically asking which frequencies add up to 10

[@ScalarLearning]

Bharat gives a great explanation!

[@parthdua1337]

U have done Q16 wrong . The answer is C part. U have to take ABD and not ABE

[@ScalarLearning]

Yes you’re right, i check the answers at the end

[@mystic5583]

For number 23, I got 1/2 because I did not take into account that the quadrant 2 thing, but my question is why would u do that, isn’t a good bit of a theta in quadrant 1?

[@ScalarLearning]

Doesn't matter, it's all about where it ends.

[@ScalarLearning]

We all cram

[@jessepatcher3376]

#15: the line you drew through (0,3) to check / eliminate choice C was a negative slope and y=x+3 (choice C) has a positive slope. The concept that was missed, imho, is that point A is ON the line, and since choice C is an inequality, without "or equal" being an option, the points on the line are not part of the solution set. Without that distinction, it looks like C works, bec 1 is less than -2 + 3 is false, whereas 1 less than or equal to -2 + 3 is true. Therefore, the point in choice C is right on the line, but points on the line in this choice are not part of the solution. Def a trick question, but a fair one, requiring understanding of "greater than or equal". Thank you for an amazing vid!
