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 function whose graph is a straight line.






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






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






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






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






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






7. Changing the grouping of terms will not change the sum - (a + b) + c = a + (b + c); ex: (5+3) + 1 = 5 + (3 + 1)






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






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






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






11. 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






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






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






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






15. Same shape - but different size






16. 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






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






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






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






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






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






23. A quantity that does not vary






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






25. 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






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






27. 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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






36. (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.






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






38. Numeric value that does not change






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






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






41. 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.






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






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






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






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






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






47. Numeric value that does not change






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






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






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