The U.S. News and World Report – Tiffany Sorensen
“The ACT math test consists of 60 multiple-choice questions that must be completed in 60 minutes. A portion of those questions involves modeling, which is the process of expressing real-life phenomena via mathematical explanations and drawings. Question 32 on page 27 of the ACT’s guide is a great example of an ACT modeling problem. ACT modeling questions sometimes use images to represent everyday scenarios involving concepts in math, though this is not always the case. They appear across a variety of math topics on the ACT, from algebra and geometry to statistics. In fact, they appear across all subject areas in the Preparing for Higher Mathematics category of questions.” (more)
