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






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






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






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






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






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






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






8. A function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






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






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






13. Any of the numbers (or symbols) that form a product when multiplied together; 3 is a factor of 9






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






21. A quantity that does not vary






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






23. 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






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






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






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






27. A function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






30. 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






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






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






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






34. 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.






35. (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.






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






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






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






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






40. 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.






41. 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






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






43. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






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






45. The reciprocal of a number.






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






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






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