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. Use the distributive property






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






3. 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






4. 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






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






6. x is always negative and y is always negative






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






8. 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)






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






10. x is always positive and y is always negative






11. Line is vertical






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






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






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






15. x is always positive and y is always positive






16. SA = 6a






17. 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






18. Line rises as it goes to the right






19. Four quarters that the coordinate graph is divided into






20. x is always negative and y is always negative






21. SA = 4pr






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






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






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






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






26. Line is horizontal






27. 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






28. Have corresponding sides forming proportions






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






30. 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






31. An algebraic expression that consists of two or more terms separated with either addition or subtraction






32. C = pd C = 2pr A = pr






33. 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)






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






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






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






37. Line falls as it goes to the right






38. Slope values will be opposite reciprocals






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






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






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






42. A quadratic with a term missing






43. P = 4a A = ah






44. An algebraic expression that consists of only one term






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






46. 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






47. 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






48. 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






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






50. Same slope values
