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






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






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






4. A number written as the product of its prime factors; examples: 10 = 2 5 - 24 = 2^3 3 (^3 means the 3 is written smaller and to the upper right of 2).






5. A function whose graph is a straight line.






6. 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.






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






8. 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






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






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






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






12. (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.






13. The reciprocal of a number.






14. A diagram of an object in which the dimensions are in proportion to the actual dimensions of the object.






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






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






17. 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






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






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






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






21. An ordered list or numbers; example: 2 -4 -6 -8 -10...






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






31. 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






32. A quantity that does not vary






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






34. Numeric value that does not change






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






36. 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.






37. An ordered list or numbers; example: 2 -4 -6 -8 -10...






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






39. 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






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






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






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






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