Subjects : clep, math, algebra
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. A number that has more than two factors






2. The order in which operations in an expression to be evaluated are carried out. 1. parentheses 2. exponets 3. multiplication and divison 4. addition and subtraction






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






4. The least common multiple of the denominators of two or more fractions.






5. 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.






6. Finding all the solutions of an equation

8. probability based on what happens when an experiment is actually done






9. The set of all the input (x-values) for a function






10. A ratio that compares two quantities measured in different units






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






12. A






13. A statement that compares two quantities using < - > - = -= - or ?






14. A whole number that has exactly two factors - 1 and itself.






15. The bottom of a triangle






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






17. A diagram used to show the total number of possible outcomes in an experiment






18. A letter used to represent one or more numbers






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






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






21. The point where a graph crosses the x-axis






22. Fractions that have the same value and the same simplest form






23. A plane that is divided into four regions by a horizontal line called the x-axis and a vertical line called the y-axis - aka 'the Cartesian plane' after Ren






24. Is a number made of repeated factors






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






26. A pair of numbers - (x - y) - that indicate the position of a point on a coordinate plane.






27. one of a pair of numbers whose product is 1: the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2






28. A term that has no variable and does not change






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






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






31. A comparison of two numbers by division






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






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






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






35. The number that is on the other side of 0 and is exactly the same distance away from 0






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






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






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






39. The amount of 3-dimensional space occupied by an object






40. When the GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1






41. Is the difference of the greatest value and the least value in a set of data.






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






43. Number in front of a variable






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






45. The order of the factors does not change the product a x b = b x a






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






47. 3.1415.... is an irrational number resulting from the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter






48. An expression that contains a square root






49. Ratios that have the same value.






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