Does the second, harder Math Module on the Digital SAT feel impossible to you? Do you get to questions 15-22 on the second harder math module and feel completely stumped for how to even start the questions? Preparing for the second harder math section of the Digital SAT is a huge challenge for many students as most books, resources, and practice tests are not representative of what you'll see on test day. In this video, I am going to discuss what I have done to help many students get perfect or near perfect scores and prepare for the second, harder math module.
Details about the steps I recommend can be found at the bottom.

For the first exponential problem, just enter the given points into a table on desmos, then do the regression y1~ab^(x1/n). All the values for a, b, and n are solved for you. Then just type g(x)=ab^(x/n) and finally type g(9). Answer is 1215. Done. 20 seconds tops.

@Andydo1 4 месяца назад

I think an easier/time efficient way to solve for #3 is by writing (x+3a)(3x + b) and let b be some number that we solve for. 3a * b will give us the c of a quadratic equation and since we know the c for all the choices is 18a, we can set 3ab equal to 18a and find that b = 6. Thus, the factored equation is (x+3a)(3x+6) and we can foil and find the answer. By plugging in numbers starting from 1, the only answer choice that will satisfy the terms for a is d

@paneertikka4065 4 месяца назад

That is really helpful man, thank you so much!

@zanezang3576 4 месяца назад

Much easier for sure. Also, you don' have to plug in numbers from 1. Because we know that b term is 6+3a, And only 24 would work if a is positive integer

@OverclockingCowboy 3 месяца назад

Very time efficient! Given (x+3a)(3x+6) which is easy to find, the middle term (coefficient of x) then becomes 9a+6. Possible x coefficients are 15, 24, 33 etc. It seems like the author is not aware of this. He is using brute force.

@srijeshgodavarthi5621 Месяц назад

or just plug in the equations in desmos add a slider for a and since a is a positive integer it should be 1,2,3,4..... and since a is positve integer consatgnt the correct equation should have a negative integer as a solution for a value of a all of the equations when a is 1,2 or more do not have that negative integer zero except for d

@Jay-yl7eq Месяц назад

desmos for that last question makes it so easy, just type in each equation, and have a slider for a , and x+3a written out. Move the slider around, and if a is positive (not 0) while intercepting the graph at a x coordinate, than it is right. If it only intersects when a=0 or a negative number, then it is wrong. Really easy to do, and it will save a lot of time.

@quillerity07 Месяц назад

for qn 4, what i did was, since x +3a is one factor then in the ans choices all of the x^2 term has a constant of 3. so, another factor shoukd be (3x + 6) , '6" because all the choices has 18 as the coeffcient of 'a'. by doing that we get 9a+6 =24 (comparing correspinding vales of x), and boom a=2 (which is indeed a positive integer).

@SauhardaPudasaini-mo9ul Месяц назад

In the first question you don't need to do such a huge work just find the multiplication factor. So in the question g(4)=5 and g(7)=135 lets pretend this a geometric series and find the common ratio in this case 135/5 = 27 in a step of 3 points so cbrt(27) = 3 . This means that for every single step increased there is a multiplication of 3. To find g(9) just do 135*3*3 this gets us 1215 our ANSWER!!

@MedhaviSharma-kl3ox 4 месяца назад

In the question in which we've to find g(9), can't we just find the value of g(2) by square rooting g(4)? Then g(9) can be solved by multiplying g(2) and g(7). This gives the answer 135 underroot 5. g(2)*g(7)=g(9) in this case

@preppros 4 месяца назад

No, that does not work because of the ab since there are two variables. For example, if you pop the function f(x)=(2)(3)^x into desmos you'll see f(2) is not the square root of f(4)

@jooniespie Месяц назад

idk if this is an easier or tougher way to solve but here's how i solved q2: q^11=x. px+r is a factor of the quadratic so, f(px+r) = 0, x = -r/p = A. therefore, 34A^2 -bA +60=0. now using the usual method of factorisation, 34*60 = 2040, (sum of factors of 2040 =b) out of all factors of 2040, 1 and 2040 will obviously have the greatest value and hence ans = 2041

@preppros 4 месяца назад

I've spent time trying to figure out a desmos workaround but I do not think there is a reliable method as you cannot solve for a using the regression tool and you cannot plug in values for a as that will affect finding the correct answer. You could get lucky depending on what you plug in but we don't want to rely on that.

Would there be any where it asks for the lowest value of b?

@preppros 4 месяца назад

Hi, that definitely could be a possible variation in the future!

@LesterOrie-mj6hq 4 месяца назад

I think it could be 94. Let's say you use this expression to factor: (34x+60) (x+1). I used 60 and 1 in that way because when multiplied out it becomes 34x^2 + 34x+60x + 60. So the bigger number in the first parentheses and the smaller one in the second pair of parentheses but one would have to use two numbers like that and in that manner for it to be the smallest possible value of b. The way Mike did it is perfect for maximising the value of b. So, do it like that to maximise the value of b but to minimise the value of b you just switch the order of where you put the two numbers bring multiplied to make the c value. Good concepts to know as I saw on reddit that this question exactly or nearly came like this on the May S.A.T. I also solved the third question instantaneously by making x=2 and just deciding to factor the last answer choice since all the coefficients could be divided by three which turned out to be 3(x+6)(x+2) and that worked out flush on the first go. The first question is one that I will fully commit to memory for the future. Mike is really aiding us. We should all support him in some way.
