Can Sup Forums solve this problem from the official 2018 SAT study guide?

>PRO Tip: You won't

I will reveal the answer after many attempts or after two dubs.

143

try again.

42

keep in mind they ain't building shit after the 2021 zombie apocalypse

Try again.

903

911

That is also, not the correct answer.

903 miles of pot-holed, shitty road.
>Fucking County X

911

How is that SAT-worthy?

How is it not the correct answer faggot?

926

895-903, depending on what month of 2030 you check.

WINRAR

Because there are 16 years from 2015 to 2030

1 more year. 911. Fuck.

Call 911

Happened to me too. For everyone that got 903 lol

911
Bush confirmed

nah, it's 903, they shouldn't count 2030

The official answer is officially wrong though. Can anyone point out why that is so?

yeah, but you check as soon as it turns 2030... so at 12:01 am on January 1st, 2030 there are 903 miles of road

903 is correct

These statistics are always counted at the end of the year

it doesn't say that in the problem

Not the reason why.

Literally 16 years of new road building x 8 miles each year = 128 miles of new road. Add that to the original 783 and it gives you 911 miles. How is anybody getting that wrong?

TIL Americans are thick as fuck

This is why I missed some of these questions

The fucking Neanderthal that wrote the answer is wrong.

The question states IN 2015 THEY STARTED PAVING ROADS, NOT 2014. So there’s only 15 years of road paving.

Im a 15 year old boy from Finland and solved this in 15 seconds. This proves that Finland has the best education system.

Really simple 903.
Any attempt to say anything different is just pure faggotry.

it depends on when you check the roads in 2030. there's literally no reason why you'd wait until the 2030 roads are finished being built.

But you have to wait until they've built all the roads they're going to build in 2030

why?

Correct.

911 or 903 obviously. Depends if they built any roads on the last year.

Did you use 15 pencils and blink 15 times?

This is like elementary exercise in EU. you solve this in one simple line : (2030-2014)*8+783.
USA education ....

How many miles will they build IN 2030? 8

How many miles will they therefor HAVE in 2030? 911

As opposed to solving it which other way?

951

>As opposed to solving it which other way?

You use your fingers.

but that's wrong, you don't count 2030 because the roads are still being built when you count your paved roads

TOPKEK

Are you dumb faggot?

You started going to school in 2015, by 2016 have you been 0 years at school?
Start building in 2015 > states 8mile/year > in 2015 they started and finished 8 miles.

This question rewards non-enquiring minds. Yep, sure thing the answer is easy enough is you only work with the information provided. But surely you want thenperson building the roads to ask more questions before giving n answer. If this is an SAT question I guess it goes someway to explaining govt. ineptness in America and underfunded infrastructure - pretty easy to fuck it up if you don't know whether to question whether it financial year or calendar year as tour deadline.

887 if we don't include 2030
895 if we do

yeah, they want you to just stick some numbers into the equation and not actually think about what is being asked.

783+((2030-2015)x8)

Spit on it and slide it in

I almost thought like the others here, who had 903 as the answer using their same logic, but then I thought about things like this guy is quoting here. In other words, 911 is right, umad because George Bush did 911.

Underage b&

That not the issue you retard.

It’s whether or not to count 2030. Do you fucking count the paved roads in 2031? No? Didn’t think so. So the only thing that matters is measuring at the same time.

Start of 2015 to start of 2030 (correct way) 15 years
End of 2015 (not what question says) to end of 2030 25 years
Start of 2015 to end of 2030 16 years, wrong, because you’d be counting in 2031

He said correct to my statement. Fuck off autist he’s correct in saying I’m correct

In the question, they say to calculate the amount BY 2030, not including it.

In the answer, they're including 2030.

They are incorrect.

End of 2030 15 not 25 years*

Yeah. "In 2030" means "at the begin of 2030"

No they're not...

Same with population statistics. It goes by 1st of January.

Yes, but you don't count the year 2030. If I start building something in 2015, and it takes me a year to do it, I end up in the year 2016. See, I would count 2015, but not 2016.

you don't count the year 2030, you dunce. You can't do something for a year in 2015, and still remain in 2015. You move on to the next year.

2030 doesn't count because that year hasn't passed.

Lol its already very established in the thread that its 903 or 911 and this guy shows up late and tosses 951 in the mix. Made me laugh lol

Fuck the sat though. These kinds of mistakes don't make me feel too great about it.

Lol same for this
