CLEP General Mathematics: Number Systems And Sets

Subjects : clep, math
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. Viewed in this way the multiplication of a complex number by i corresponds to rotating a complex number






2. An equation - or system of equations - in two or more variables defines






3. One term (5x or 4)






4. The complex conjugate of the complex number z = x + yi is defined to be x - yi. It is denoted or . Geometrically - is the

5. Any number that is exactly divisible by a given number is a






6. This law states that the product of two or more factors is the same regardless of the order in which the factors are arranged. Negative signs require no special treatment in the application of this law.






7. A number that has factors other than itself and 1 is a






8. A number is divisible by 8 if






9. This law states that the product of three or more factors is the same regardless of the manner in which they are grouped. Negative signs require no special treatment in the application of this law.






10. A number is divisible by 2 if






11. 2 -3 -4 -5 -6






12. The central problem of Diophantine geometry is to determine when a Diophantine equation has






13. First axiom of equality






14. Is a number that can be expressed in the form where a and b are real numbers and i is the imaginary unit - satisfying i2 = -1. For example - -3.5 + 2i is a complex number. It is common to write a for a + 0i and bi for 0 + bi. Moreover - when the imag






15. This law can be applied to subtraction by changing signs so that all negative signs become number signs and all signs of operation are positive.






16. These are emphasised in a complex number's polar form and it turns out notably that the operations of addition and multiplication take on a very natural geometric character when complex numbers are viewed as position vectors:






17. Sum






18. One asks whether there are any rational points (points all of whose coordinates are rationals) or integral points (points all of whose coordinates are integers) on the curve or surface. If there are any such points - the next step is to ask how many






19. Sixteen less than number Q






20. Subtraction






21. Number T increased by 9






22. The finiteness or not of the number of rational or integer points on an algebraic curve






23. More than






24. The objects in a set have at least






25. The number of digits in an integer indicates its rank; that is - whether it is 'in the hundreds -' 'in the thousands -' etc. The idea of ranking numbers in terms of tens - hundreds - thousands - etc. - is based on the






26. In terms of its tools - as the study of the integers by means of tools from real and complex analysis - in terms of its concerns - as the study within number theory of estimates on size and density - as opposed to identities.






27. This law states that the sum of two or more addends is the same regardless of the order in which they are arranged. Means to change - substitute or move from place to place.






28. G - E - M - A Grouping - Exponents - Multiply/Divide - Add/Subtract






29. Is any complex number that is a solution to some polynomial equation with rational coefficients; for example - every solution x of (say) is an algebraic number. Fields of algebraic numbers are also called algebraic number fields - or shortly number f






30. Studies algebraic properties and algebraic objects of interest in number theory. (Thus - analytic and algebraic number theory can and do overlap: the former is defined by its methods - the latter by its objects of study.) A key topic is that of the a






31. Any number that la a multiple of 2 is an






32. Quotient






33. A number that has no factors except itself and 1 is a






34. The numbers which are used for counting in our number system are sometimes called






35. The defining characteristic of a position vector is that it has






36. A branch of geometry studying more general reflections than ones about a line - can also be expressed in terms of complex numbers.






37. Are often studied as extensions of smaller number fields: a field L is said to be an extension of a field K if L contains K. (For example - the complex numbers C are an extension of the reals R - and the reals R are an extension of the rationals Q.)






38. As shown earlier - c - di is the complex conjugate of the denominator c + di.






39. This law can be applied to subtraction by changing signs in such a way that all negative signs are treated as number signs rather than operational signs.That is - some of the addends can be negative numbers.






40. The base which is most commonly used is ten - and the system with ten as a base is called the decimal system (decem is the Latin word for ten). Any number is assumed - unless indicated - to be a






41. The greatest of 3 consecutive whole numbers - the smallest of which is F






42. Work on the problem of general polynomials ultimately led to the fundamental theorem of algebra -






43. In the Rectangular Coordinate System - On the vertical line - direction ________ is positive






44. Does not have an equal sign (3x+5) (2a+9b)






45. Number symbols






46. The set of all complex numbers is denoted by






47. Plus






48. One asks whether there are any rational points (points all of whose coordinates are rationals) or integral points (points all of whose coordinates are integers) on the curve or surface. If there are any such points - the next step is to ask how many






49. A number is divisible by 4 if
