What is reading writing and math
If an author's argument is described as "cogent," is it weak or convincing?
Convincing (clear, logical, and persuasive)
In a "Paired Question" set, what does Part B usually ask you to do in relation to Part A?
Provide the specific textual evidence that best supports the answer to Part A.
What is the vertex of the parabola given by the quadratic equation (y = (x - 3)^2 + 5)?
(3,5)

True or False: You are allowed to use a built-in graphing calculator on the entire Math section of the Digital SAT.
True (The Bluebook app includes a built-in Desmos calculator)
Complete the sentence with the best word: "The scientist's theory was entirely ________, lacking any empirical evidence to support it." (Options: Conjectural, Substantiated, Irrefutable)
Conjectural
If a passage text shifts from an objective description of a scientific phenomena to a passionate plea for conservation, what has changed?
The author's tone (or attitude).
If a system of two linear equations has infinitely many solutions, what do you know about their lines on a graph?
They are the exact same line (identical slope and y-intercept).
In right triangle trigonometry, what side ratio defines the "Sine" of an angle?
Opposite over hypotenuse
What official, free testing application must students download to take the Digital SAT?
What is bluebook
What does the word "ephemeral" mean when referencing a short-lived artistic trend?
The author's tone (or attitude).
When an SAT passage includes a data table alongside a science text, what must a student do to answer correctly?
Integrate the data from the table with the claims made in the text to find the matching conclusion.
Find the solutions to the quadratic equation: (x^2 - 9 = 0).
(x = 3) and (x = -3).
What is the formula used to calculate the area of a circle?
\(A = \pi r^2\)
describe how the "adaptive" nature of the Digital SAT modules works.
Your performance on the first module determines the difficulty level of the questions in the second module.
Define the word "anomalous" as it would appear in a scientific reading passage about unexpected data points.
Deviating from what is standard, normal, or expected; irregular.
What transition word best fills the blank to show a contrast: "The initial data suggested a decline; ________, the final results revealed a sharp increase."
However (or any equivalent contrasting transition like "nevertheless" or "nonetheless").
If (f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 1), what is the value of (f(-2))?
If (f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 1), what is the value of (f(-2))?
If (sin(x) = \cos(y)) in a right triangle, what must be true about the relationship between angles (x) and (y)?
They are complementary (they add up to 90 degrees).
