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. An expression that contains only numbers and operations (2 3) + 1






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






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






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






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






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






7. The number obtained by division; the ratio of two quantities to be divided; the answer to a division problem






8. A quantity that does not vary






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






10. 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)






11. 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






12. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






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






14. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






15. Same shape - but different size






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






17. A number written as the product of its prime factors; examples: 10 = 2 5 - 24 = 2^3 3 (^3 means the 3 is written smaller and to the upper right of 2).






18. An expression that contains only numbers and operations (2 3) + 1






19. A function whose graph is a straight line.






20. All rational or irrational numbers; real numbers can be represented on the real number line






21. A number multiplied by a variable in an algebraic expression; a constant number that serves as a measure of some property or characteristic






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






23. The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect on the coordinate plane; (0 - 0).






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






25. A pair of numbers that can be used to locate a point on a coordinate plane.






26. A method of measurement that uses formulas - similar figures - and/or proportions.






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






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






29. A diagram of an object in which the dimensions are in proportion to the actual dimensions of the object.






30. All rational or irrational numbers; real numbers can be represented on the real number line






31. A quantity obtained by multiplication; the answer to a multiplication problem






32. An equation whose solutions form a straight line on a coordinate plane; example: y = 3x - 1






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






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






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






36. A function whose graph is a straight line.






37. 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






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






39. An input-output relationship that has exactly one output for each input; An equation written with two variables where only one output exists for each input; example: y = 2x +1






40. 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






41. A real number that cannot be expressed as a rational number






42. A quantity obtained by multiplication; the answer to a multiplication problem






43. The distance from zero to the real number on a number line.






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






45. The ratio between the size of something and a representation of it






46. Same shape - but different size






47. A quantity that does not vary






48. 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






49. Expressions that contain the same variables to the same power






50. The reciprocal of a number.
