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






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






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






4. 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.






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






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






7. (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.






8. 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).






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






10. 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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






26. Same shape - but different size






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






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






29. 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






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






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






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






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

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






39. The reciprocal of a number.






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






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






42. 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).






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






44. A quantity that does not vary






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