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






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






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






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






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






7. 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






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






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






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






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






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






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






14. The largest common factor of two or more given numbers; The GCF of 27 and 45 is 9.






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






16. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






17. 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






18. 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






19. 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






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






21. The reciprocal of a number.






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






23. (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.






24. 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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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 decimal number that ends or terminates; example: 6.75






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






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






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






36. 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).






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






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






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






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






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






42. The largest common factor of two or more given numbers; The GCF of 27 and 45 is 9.






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






44. Same shape - but different size






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