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






2. Fractions that name the same amount or part - 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions






3. (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.






4. 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






5. The Zero Property of Addition. Adding 0 to a number leaves it unchanged; ex: 67+0=67 - 67+0=67






6. Any of the natural numbers (positive or negative) or zero; any of the set of whole numbers and their opposites






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






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






9. A quantity that does not vary






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






11. 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






12. A mathematical phrase involving one or more terms and operations






13. 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.






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






15. The ratio between the size of something and a representation of it






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






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






18. Same shape - but different size






19. 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






20. Changing the grouping of terms will not change the sum - (a + b) + c = a + (b + c); ex: (5+3) + 1 = 5 + (3 + 1)






21. (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.






22. The ratio between the size of something and a representation of it






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






24. A property indicating a special way in Which multiplication is applied to addition of two or more numbers in which each term inside a set of parentheses can be multiplied by a factor outside the parentheses - such as a(b + c) = ab + ac; ex: 4(3 + 8)






25. Statement that two fractions or ratios are equal






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






27. Numeric value that does not change






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






29. For any number a and b - a + b = b + a






30. The distance from zero to the real number on a number line.






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






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






33. A symbol (like x or y) that is used in mathematical or logical expressions to represent a variable quantity; in the expression 2x + 3 - x is the variable






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






35. Numeric value that does not change






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






37. The reciprocal of a number.






38. A function whose graph is a straight line.






39. 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.






40. A number multiplied by a variable in an algebraic expression; a constant number that serves as a measure of some property or characteristic






41. Any of the natural numbers (positive or negative) or zero; any of the set of whole numbers and their opposites






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






44. The smallest number - other than zero - that is a multiple of two or more given numbers; The LCM of 10 and 18 is 90.






45. A function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






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






49. 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






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