2007 Vanderbilt High School Mathematics Competition Ciphering Guidelines Separate and completely fill out answer sheets Only answers written in the answer blank provided will be graded There will be two one-minute time frames; a correct answer in the first minute is worth 10 points and a correct answer in the second minute is worth 5 points. A 5-second warning will be announced before the end of each time frame. Please fold your answer sheet and hold it in the air during this warning to turn in your answer.
2007 Vanderbilt High School Mathematics Competition Ciphering Guidelines (cont.) Answer sheets will only be accepted during the 5-second interval, and answer sheets raised after the end of the time frame will not be accepted . A student may not take his answer sheet back after a runner has taken it. You may submit only one answer sheet per question. As always, calculators and other forms of aid are prohibited and using them will result in immediate disqualification.
2007 Vanderbilt High School Mathematics Competition Ciphering Guidelines (cont.) Do not approximate radicals or other irrational numbers such as Φ, π, and e unless specifically instructed otherwise in the problem. Fractions may be left in mixed (ex. 3 ½), improper (ex. 7/2), or decimal (ex. 3.5) form as long as they are fully reduced. For example, 14/4 would not be an acceptable answer.
