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.

21. Once we have an equation of the form |x| = a - and x>0 - what do we know about x ?






22. Squaring a positive proper fraction/percent Increases/Decreases the value? e.g. 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16






23. To find the units digit of a product - or a sum of integers - Only pay attention to the units digit of the numbers you're working with. Drop any other digits. This shortcut works because only units digits contribute to the units digit of the product.
