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






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






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






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






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






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






7. 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).






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






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






10. 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






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






12. 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






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






14. Numeric value that does not change






15. A function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






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






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






20. 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






21. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






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






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






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






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






26. 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.






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






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






29. The reciprocal of a number.






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






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






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






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






34. 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).






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






42. (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.






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






44. (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.






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






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






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






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






49. 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






50. The reciprocal of a number.
