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. 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






2. SA = 6a






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






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






5. 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






6. 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






7. Line is vertical






8. Four quarters that the coordinate graph is divided into






9. Slope values will be opposite reciprocals






10. Line falls as it goes to the right






11. Line rises as it goes to the right






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






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






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






15. 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






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






17. x is always negative and y is always negative






18. 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)






19. 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






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






21. Line is horizontal






22. x is always positive and y is always positive






23. C = pd C = 2pr A = pr






24. P = 4a A = ah






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






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






27. P = 4a A = a






28. x is always positive and y is always negative






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






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






31. x is always negative and y is always negative






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






33. Same slope values






34. A quadratic with a term missing






35. An algebraic expression that consists of only one term






36. 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






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






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






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






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






41. 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






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






43. 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
