CSET Multiple Subjects Subtest 2a Domain 2: 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. Find the largest common monomial factor of each term - Divide the original polynomial by this factor to obtain the second factor (the second factor will be a polynomial)






2. Must be like terms (like terms have exactly the same variables with exactly the same exponents on them)






3. Formed by two perpendicular number lines (coordinate axes)






4. A quadratic with a term missing






5. Line is horizontal






6. A quadratic equation is an equation that could be written as Ax






7. x- axis or abscissa - Numbers to the right of 0 are positive and to the left of 0 are negative






8. Line falls as it goes to the right






9. A statement that says that two expressions written in fraction form are equal to one another - Proportions are quickly solved using a cross multiplying technique






10. P = b1 + b2 + x + y A = [h(b1 + b2)]/2






11. P = 2a + 2b P = 2(a + b) A = bh






12. An equation whose points - when connected - form a line - Can be written in the form - 'y = mx + b'






13. SA = (Base - per)h + 2(Base - area) V = (Base - area)h






14. The first number in the ordered pair - Shows how far to the right or left of 0 the point is






15. Check to see if you can monomial factor (factor out common terms). Then - if A = 1 (the first term is simply x






16. Line rises as it goes to the right






17. Use the distributive property






18. x is always negative and y is always negative






19. SA = 4pr






20. P = 4a A = a






21. Add or subtract the like terms in the polynomials together






22. A statement in which the relationships are not equal - Instead of using an equal sign (=) as in an equation - we use > (greater than) and < (less than) - or = (greater than or equal to) and = (less than or equal to). - When working with inequalities






23. If the sign of the last term is negative: Find two numbers whose product is the last term and whose difference is the coefficient (number in front) of the middle term - Give the larger of the two numbers the sign of the middle term - and give the opp






24. When an expression has a positive integer exponent - it indicates repeated multiplication (Multiply numbers and add exponents on like term variables)






25. y - axis or ordinate - Numbers above 0 are positive and numbers below 0 are negative






26. Find two numbers whose product is the last term and whose sum is the coefficient of the middle term - Give both factors the sign of the middle term - If A ? 1 (if the first term has a coefficient different than 1






27. x is always positive and y is always negative






28. SA = (Base - per)h + 2(Base - area) SA = 2prh + 2pr






29. Slope values will be opposite reciprocals






30. The slope of a line gives a number value that describes its steepness and the direction in which it slants - Positive slope - negative slope - zero slope - undefined/no slope - Slope is calculated by comparing the rise (the difference of the y - val






31. The point at which the line passes through the y - axis - The b in the y = mx + b form






32. P = 2b + 2h P = 2(b + h) A = bh






33. An algebraic expression that consists of only one term






34. A relationship between numbers and/or symbols that says two expressions have the same value - Solving an equation for a variable requires that you find a value or an expression that has the desired variable on one side of the equation and everything






35. Insert the value(s) given for the unknown(s) and do the arithmetic - making sure to follow the rules for the order of operations.






36. The second number in the ordered pair - Shows how far up or down the point is from 0






37. Same slope values






38. An ordered pair of numbers by which each point on a coordinate graph is located - Coordinates show the points' location on the graph - Shown as (x - y)






39. Finding two or more quantities whose product equals the original quantity






40. Graphs of equations in two variables (usually x and y) can be formed by finding ordered pairs that make the equation true - and then connecting these points






41. SA = 2(lw + lh + wh) SA = (Base - per)h + 2(Base - area) V = lwh V = (Base - area)h






42. Have corresponding sides forming proportions






43. x is always positive and y is always positive






44. The point at which the two axes intersect - Represented by the coordinates (0 -0) - often marked simply 0






45. Find the square root of the first term and the square root of the second term - Express your answer as the product of the sum of the quantities from step 1 times the difference of those quantities






46. C = pd C = 2pr A = pr






47. SA = 6a






48. P = a + b + c A = (bh)/2






49. x is always negative and y is always negative






50. P = 4a A = ah
