Middle Grade Math And Basic Algebra

Subjects : 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. (mathematics) one of a pair of numbers whose product is 1: the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2; a fraction that has been flipped. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3.






2. A decimal in which one or more digits repeat infinitely; The repeating portion of the decimal is shown with a short line drawn over the repeating numbers.






3. A symbol (like x or y) that is used in mathematical or logical expressions to represent a variable quantity; in the expression 2x + 3 - x is the variable






4. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a:b or 2:3






5. Math phrase that uses variables - numbers and operation symbols






6. Math phrase that uses variables - numbers and operation symbols






7. The Zero Property of Addition. Adding 0 to a number leaves it unchanged; ex: 67+0=67 - 67+0=67






8. A decimal number that ends or terminates; example: 6.75






9. 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






10. The product of a quantity by an integer; example 24 is a multiple of 3 and 8






11. Fractions that name the same amount or part - 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions






12. For any number a and b - a + b = b + a






13. Letter that represents a number; variable amounts may change






14. The smallest number - other than zero - that is a multiple of two or more given numbers; The LCM of 10 and 18 is 90.






15. A mathematical phrase involving one or more terms and operations






16. A decimal number that ends or terminates; example: 6.75






17. States that changing grouping of factors does not change the product. (ab)c = a(bc); ex: (2 6) 7 = 2 (6 7)






18. A property indicating a special way in Which multiplication is applied to addition of two or more numbers in which each term inside a set of parentheses can be multiplied by a factor outside the parentheses - such as a(b + c) = ab + ac; ex: 4(3 + 8)






19. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






20. The reciprocal of a number.






21. The x- and y-axes divide the coordinate plane into four regions. Each region is called a quadrant.






22. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a:b or 2:3






23. A mathematical phrase involving one or more terms and operations






24. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a/b or 2/3 (denominator cannot be zero)






25. 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






26. The number that indicates how many times the base is used as a factor






27. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






28. A fraction in which the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator; examples: 5/5 or 7/4






29. A function whose graph is a straight line.






30. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a to b or 2 to 3






31. (mathematics) one of a pair of numbers whose product is 1: the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2; a fraction that has been flipped. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3.






32. A number that can be written as a/b where a and b are integers - but b is not equal to 0; an integer or a fraction; examples: 6 can be expressed as 6/1; 0.5 can be expressed as 1/2.






33. An ordered list or numbers; example: 2 -4 -6 -8 -10...






34. Changing the order of the factors does not change the product; for example 10 x 9 = 9 x 10; a b = b a






35. The smallest number - other than zero - that is a multiple of two or more given numbers; The LCM of 10 and 18 is 90.






36. Any of the natural numbers (positive or negative) or zero; any of the set of whole numbers and their opposites






37. (mathematics) one of a pair of numbers whose sum is zero






38. The operation which undoes an operation - the opposite operation: subtraction is the inverse of addition - addition is the inverse of subtraction; division is the inverse of multiplication - multiplication is the inverse of division - square root is






39. A function whose graph is a straight line.






40. Numeric value that does not change






41. The Zero Property of Addition. Adding 0 to a number leaves it unchanged; ex: 67+0=67 - 67+0=67






42. The plane formed by 2 number lines that intersect at their zero points dividing the plane into 4 quadrants; A coordinate system formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line - called the x-axis - and a vertical number line - called the y-axi
