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






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






3. Changing the grouping of terms will not change the sum - (a + b) + c = a + (b + c); ex: (5+3) + 1 = 5 + (3 + 1)






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






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






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






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






8. A comparison of two quantities - may be directly represented by numbers and or variables






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






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






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






12. Same shape - but different size






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






14. A function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






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






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






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






20. (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.






21. 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






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






23. Numeric value that does not change






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






25. Numeric value that does not change






26. The ratio of dimensions of the new image to those of the original figure






27. The ratio of dimensions of the new image to those of the original figure






28. 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






29. A function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






32. A comparison of two quantities - may be directly represented by numbers and or variables






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






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






35. The reciprocal of a number.






36. (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.






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






38. 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)






39. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






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






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






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






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






44. 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.






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






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






47. 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






48. 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.






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






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