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. Expressions that contain the same variables to the same power






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






9. 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






10. 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






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






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






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






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






16. Numeric value that does not change






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






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






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






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






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






22. 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






23. 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






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






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






26. The reciprocal of a number.






27. 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).






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






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






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






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






32. (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.






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






34. 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






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






36. 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)






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






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






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






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

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






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






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