http://www.emsc.nysed.gov/osa/mathei/mathe.../gr8bk2math.pdf id like to know how to do # 31. Do you just visually divide the mountain up?? It doesnt say use a ruler, so measurment is out of the question. Strings are not allowed. The only way I can think of doing it is by dividing the mountain up into segments and multiplying it by 4, excluding the first bold segment.
I'd guess 32 just by using my eyes...
sure- but is that how they want you to do it....... should i say something like between 32-26...........cmon people test is tomorrow!
By skimming through the test, it doesn't look like you have a lot to worry about. How old are you? Is this test important?Quote:

14- statewide math test. im in an honors class and they make us take his bs. Im taking the regents though, which caused my class to skim throught he regular 8th grade work- but what is the answer to that??
I'd also say 32. The thing to remember is the question asked you to estimate, not be precise. When the examiner comes to mark papers he/she will have the answers, and for Q31 it'll have something like - "Accept sudents answers if within 28 to 36. It seems pretty simple though, even for someone at your age. Don't sweat it ;) Good luck as well
I'm well aware that New York City is the center of the universe, but I think it speaks volumes about an education system that touts a "Statewide/City" test. :huh:
