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. Math phrase that uses variables - numbers and operation symbols






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






3. Numeric value that does not change






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






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






7. 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






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






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. 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.






11. 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)






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






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






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






15. 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






16. 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






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






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






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






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






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






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






23. (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.

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






33. (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.






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






35. 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






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