Middle Grade Math And Basic Algebra

Subjects : math, algebra
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. The plane formed by 2 number lines that intersect at their zero points dividing the plane into 4 quadrants; A coordinate system formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line - called the x-axis - and a vertical number line - called the y-axi






2. Changing the order of the factors does not change the product; for example 10 x 9 = 9 x 10; a b = b a






3. The number obtained by division; the ratio of two quantities to be divided; the answer to a division problem






4. The number that indicates how many times the base is used as a factor






5. The ratio of dimensions of the new image to those of the original figure






6. A function whose graph is a straight line.






7. An equation whose solutions form a straight line on a coordinate plane; example: y = 3x - 1






8. A decimal in which one or more digits repeat infinitely; The repeating portion of the decimal is shown with a short line drawn over the repeating numbers.






9. A pair of numbers that can be used to locate a point on a coordinate plane.






10. A quantity obtained by multiplication; the answer to a multiplication problem






11. Same shape - but different size






12. A quantity obtained by multiplication; the answer to a multiplication problem






13. A real number that cannot be expressed as a rational number






14. (mathematics) one of a pair of numbers whose sum is zero






15. (mathematics) one of a pair of numbers whose product is 1: the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2; a fraction that has been flipped. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3.






16. The number that indicates how many times the base is used as a factor






17. The product of a quantity by an integer; example 24 is a multiple of 3 and 8






18. A number that can be written as a/b where a and b are integers - but b is not equal to 0; an integer or a fraction; examples: 6 can be expressed as 6/1; 0.5 can be expressed as 1/2.






19. A method of measurement that uses formulas - similar figures - and/or proportions.






20. Expressions that contain the same variables to the same power






21. The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect on the coordinate plane; (0 - 0).






22. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






23. An expression that contains only numbers and operations (2 3) + 1






24. A method of measurement that uses formulas - similar figures - and/or proportions.






25. All rational or irrational numbers; real numbers can be represented on the real number line






26. The reciprocal of a number.






27. A decimal number that ends or terminates; example: 6.75






28. (mathematics) one of a pair of numbers whose product is 1: the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2; a fraction that has been flipped. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3.






29. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a to b or 2 to 3






30. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a:b or 2:3






31. Math phrase that uses variables - numbers and operation symbols






32. Letter that represents a number; variable amounts may change






33. Specific form of representing ratios - examples - a/b or 2/3 (denominator cannot be zero)






34. States that changing grouping of factors does not change the product. (ab)c = a(bc); ex: (2 6) 7 = 2 (6 7)






35. The number obtained by division; the ratio of two quantities to be divided; the answer to a division problem






36. An input-output relationship that has exactly one output for each input; An equation written with two variables where only one output exists for each input; example: y = 2x +1






37. The order in which operations in an expression to be evaluated are carried out. 1. parentheses 2. exponets 3. multiplication and divison 4. addition and subtraction






38. The largest common factor of two or more given numbers; The GCF of 27 and 45 is 9.






39. An expression that contains only numbers and operations (2 3) + 1






40. A function whose graph is a straight line.






41. The operation which undoes an operation - the opposite operation: subtraction is the inverse of addition - addition is the inverse of subtraction; division is the inverse of multiplication - multiplication is the inverse of division - square root is






42. A number that can be written as a/b where a and b are integers - but b is not equal to 0; an integer or a fraction; examples: 6 can be expressed as 6/1; 0.5 can be expressed as 1/2.






43. The x- and y-axes divide the coordinate plane into four regions. Each region is called a quadrant.
