CLEP General Mathematics: Number Systems And Sets

Subjects : clep, math
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. This law can be applied to subtraction by changing signs so that all negative signs become number signs and all signs of operation are positive.






2. Any number that la a multiple of 2 is an






3. The smallest of four sonsecutive whole numbers - the biggest of which is K+6






4. As shown earlier - c - di is the complex conjugate of the denominator c + di.






5. This law states that the sum of three or more addends is the same regardless of the manner in which they are grouped. suggests association or grouping.






6. Decreased by






7. The relative greatness of positive and negative numbers






8. A number that has factors other than itself and 1 is a






9. In the Rectangular Coordinate System - the direction to the right along the horizontal line is






10. The number without a variable (5m+2). In this case - 2






11. Is any complex number that is a solution to some polynomial equation with rational coefficients; for example - every solution x of (say) is an algebraic number. Fields of algebraic numbers are also called algebraic number fields - or shortly number f






12. One term (5x or 4)






13. Implies a collection or grouping of similar - objects or symbols.






14. Work on the problem of general polynomials ultimately led to the fundamental theorem of algebra -






15. The objects in a set have at least






16. In particular - the square of the imaginary unit is -1: The preceding definition of multiplication of general complex numbers follows naturally from this fundamental property of the imaginary unit. Indeed - if i is treated as a number so that di mean






17. 2 -3 -4 -5 -6






18. Product of 16 and the sum of 5 and number R






19. LAWS FOR COMBINING NUMBERS






20. In the Rectangular Coordinate System - On the vertical line - direction ________ is positive






21. The finiteness or not of the number of rational or integer points on an algebraic curve






22. One asks whether there are any rational points (points all of whose coordinates are rationals) or integral points (points all of whose coordinates are integers) on the curve or surface. If there are any such points - the next step is to ask how many






23. Allow for solutions to certain equations that have no real solution: the equation has no real solution - since the square of a real number is 0 or positive.






24. This law states that the sum of two or more addends is the same regardless of the order in which they are arranged. Means to change - substitute or move from place to place.






25. A number is divisible by 6 if it is






26. Sum






27. A number is divisible by 5 if its






28. Has an equal sign (3x+5 = 14)






29. The greatest of 3 consecutive whole numbers - the smallest of which is F






30. Remainder






31. G - E - M - A Grouping - Exponents - Multiply/Divide - Add/Subtract






32. Are not necessary. That is - the elements of {2 - 2 - 3 - 4} are simply {2 - 3 - and 4}






33. The defining characteristic of a position vector is that it has






34. Is called the real part of z - and the real number b is often called the imaginary part. By this convention the imaginary part is a real number - not including the imaginary unit: hence b - not bi - is the imaginary part. (Others - however call bi th






35. The Arabic numerals from 0 through 9 are called






36. The set of all complex numbers is denoted by






37. This law states that the product of two or more factors is the same regardless of the order in which the factors are arranged. Negative signs require no special treatment in the application of this law.






38. The objects or symbols in a set are called Numerals - Lines - or Points






39. A number is divisible by 4 if






40. Integers greater than zero and less than 5 form a set - as follows:






41. More than one term (5x+4 contains two)






42. A number that has no factors except itself and 1 is a






43. Are often studied as extensions of smaller number fields: a field L is said to be an extension of a field K if L contains K. (For example - the complex numbers C are an extension of the reals R - and the reals R are an extension of the rationals Q.)






44. One asks whether there are any rational points (points all of whose coordinates are rationals) or integral points (points all of whose coordinates are integers) on the curve or surface. If there are any such points - the next step is to ask how many






45. Viewed in this way the multiplication of a complex number by i corresponds to rotating a complex number






46. The complex conjugate of the complex number z = x + yi is defined to be x - yi. It is denoted or . Geometrically - is the
