Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Is the amount paid for borrowing or lending money






2. An expression that contains a square root






3. Is the middle value in a data set where the numbers are ordered least to greatest






4. The perpendicular (90 degrees) distance from the base of a triangle to the opposite vertex






5. All possible arrangements of a collection of things - where the order is important. The number of ______________ of n distinct objects is n






6. The sum of a number and zero is always that number.






7. Terms that have identical variable parts raised to the same power






8. An event that is not affected by another event.






9. A number that has more than two factors






10. y = mx + b






11. The y-value in a function






12. An equation whose answers are ordered pairs (x -y) and whose answers graph a straight line






13. Number of favorable outcomes divided by total number of possible outcomes






14. A ratio whose denominator is 100






15. skip-counting by any given number Ex: 4 - 8 - 12 - 16...






16. An equation that states that two ratios are equal - Ex: 1/2 = x/10






17. To find the value of an expression






18. A single term made up of numbers and variables






19. The distance a number is from 0 on the number line - value of n is written l n l






20. The number of square units needed to cover a flat surface






21. The smallest multiple that two or more numbers have in common






22. A letter used to represent one or more numbers






23. A decimal in which one or more digits repeat infinitely






24. A relation that assigns exactly one output value for each input value






25. Changing the grouping of terms will not change the sum - (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)






26. A way to figure out the total number of ways different events can occur. If there are a ways for one activity to occur - and b ways for a second activity to occur - then there are a * b ways for both to occur.






27. A number that has a whole number for a square root ex: 9 - 16 - 121






28. An event who's outcome does depend on the outcome of a previous event






29. The set of all the output (y-values) for a function






30. A rate that has a denominator of 1






31. A method of writing very large or very small numbers by using powers of 10






32. A comparison of two numbers by division






33. The total area of the 2-dimensional surfaces that make up a 3-dimensional object.






34. The distance around a circle.






35. In an expression are separated by addition and subtraction signs






36. The sum of the values in a data set divided by the number of values in the set






37. A number that can be written as a/b where a and b are integers - but b is not equal to 0.






38. An expression constructed from a set of terms by multiplying each term by a constant and adding the results.






39. The ratio of the number of ways the event can occur to the number of ways the event cannot occur. Favorable over Unfavorable.






40. Consists of numbers and operations






41. Number in front of a variable






42. An equation that shows a relationship among two or more quantities






43. Is the set of all points that are an equal distance from a point called the center






44. The point where a graph crosses the y-axis






45. The distance across a circle through its center (is also twice the radius)






46. Changing the grouping of factors will not change the product - (ab)c = a(bc)






47. What should occur in a probability experiment...an experiment is not actually done






48. A number that can not be written a/b






49. A






50. A mathematical notation indicating the number of times a quantity is multiplied by itself
