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. A comparison of two quantities - may be directly represented by numbers and or variables






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






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






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






5. 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.






6. 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)






7. 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)






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






9. 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






10. The reciprocal of a number.






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






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






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






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






15. 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.






16. 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






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






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






19. Any of the numbers (or symbols) that form a product when multiplied together; 3 is a factor of 9






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






21. A fraction in which the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator; examples: 5/5 or 7/4






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






23. A function whose graph is a straight line.






24. 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.






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






26. (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.






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






28. 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






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






30. 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






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






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






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






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






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






36. A quantity that does not vary






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






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






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






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






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






42. Numeric value that does not change






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