CSET Multiple Subjects Subtest 2a Domain 1: Math

Subjects : cset, 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. Factor the number into two numbers - one (or more) of which is a perfect square - Take the square root of the perfect square(s) - Leave the others under the v






2. Numbers to the right of 0 are positive - Numbers to the left of 0 are negative - Given any two numbers on a number line - the one on the right is always larger - regardless of its sign (positive or negative)






3. ...-3 - -2 - -1 - 0 - 1 - 2 - 3... all the whole numbers together with their opposites






4. Any value that exists but is not rational






5. You may have to borrow from the whole number - just like you sometimes borrow from the next column when subtracting ordinary numbers. To subtract a mixed number from a whole number - you have to borrow from the whole number.






6. 1. Any number multiplied by 1 gives that number.






7. A + b = b + a Note: Subtraction does not have the communicative property.






8. Kiloleter (kl or kL) = 1000 liters hectoliter (hl or hL) = 100 liters decaliter (dal or daL) = 10 liters liter (l or L) = 1 liter deciliter (dl or dL) = 0.1 liter centiliter (cl or cL) = 0.01 liter milliliter (ml or mL) = 0.001 liter






9. Is perpendicular to






10. Is greater than






11. For 'what -' substitute the letter x - For 'is -' substitute an equal sign - For 'of -' substitute a multiplication sign - Change percents to decimals or fractions and solve the equation






12. .83 1/3 = 83 1/3%






13. (change/starting point) x 100 = percentage change






14. Change the percent to a fraction or decimal and multiply






15. 4 quarts






16. Is greater than or equal to






17. Read it - Write it - Reduce it






18. A number in scientific notation is written as a rational number from 1 to 9 - and then multiplied by a power of 10






19. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the numbers you would naturally count by - 0 is not a natural number.






20. Sum - plus - is increased by - more than (example: 3 more than 7 is what?)






21. Difference - minus - is decreased by - less than (example: 3 less than 7 is what?)






22. All values that can be expressed in the form a/b - where a and b are integers and b ? 0 - Or - when expressed in decimal form - the expression either terminates or has a repeating pattern






23. 2 cups






24. 2/10 = .2 = .20 = 20%






25. A natural number greater than 1 that is not a prime number (an alternate definition is a natural number that has exactly two different divisors) The first seven ____________ are 4 - 6 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 12 - and 14






26. Numbers to the left of the decimal point are whole numbers; numbers to the right of the decimal point are fractions with denominators of only 10 - 100 - 1000 - 10000 - etc.






27. Is less than






28. Fraction must be reduced to its lowest terms. This is done by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) for both the numerator and denominator and then dividing both the numerator and denominator by that value.






29. Multiply the numerators - multiply the denominators - and reduce to lowest terms if possible






30. 3 feet 36 inches






31. 1.1 quarts






32. About 0.6 mile






33. Find a number that divides evenly into one numerator and one denominator. Reducing early only applies to multiplying fractions - not adding or subtracting.






34. Two numbers multiplied under a radical (square root) sign equal the product of the two square roots - and likewise with division.






35. Invert (turn upside down) the second fraction and multiply; reduce if necessary.






36. Is equal to






37. When the place value name ends with a 'ths -' it is an indication of being a fraction.






38. 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -... the natural numbers together with 0






39. Find the LCD and subtract the numerators.






40. To square a number - multiply it by itself






41. When adding two numbers with the same sign (either both positive or both negative) - add the pure number portions (absolute values) and keep the sign that is on the numbers






42. 75/100 = .75 = 75%






43. The square of a whole number






44. Eliminate the percent sign - Move the decimal point two places to the left (sometimes adding zeros will be necessary)






45. 1.00 = 100%






46. Is not equal to






47. 1000 kilograms






48. 25/100 = .25 = 25%






49. The grouping - without changing the order - does not affect the answer






50. 4/10 = .4 = .40 = 40%
