A patient's protein intake for today has been 15.76g, 8.49g, and 22.58g. What is the total
protein intake rounded to the nearest tenth of a decimal?
A. 46.5g
B. 46.8g
C. 46.9g
D. 47g
B. 46.8g
Square Root
A number that produces a specified number when it is multiplied by itself.
Rounding
A method of estimating in order to make working with a number easier.
Term
In Mathematics, a term is an individual number or variable, or numbers and variables multiplied
together in an expression. Terms are separated by addition or subtraction signs.
Stem Plot
A visual representation of data in which individual points are plotted to the right of a vertical
line, or chart, and the left (the "stem") shows the interval categories.
Scatterplot
A graph that uses dots on a coordinate plane to show the relationship between two quantitative
variables.
Population
An entire pool from which a sample is drawn.
Multiplication Rule for Independent Events
If two events are independent, then P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B).
Given the equation: (.5475 - .3025) x .15. What is the solution rounded to the nearest
thousandth?
A. .03675
B. .0368
C. .368
D. .037
D. .037
Rational Number
A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio of integers, which means it can be
written as a fraction.
Percent Sign
A symbol used to denote percentages.
, Horizontal Line
A line that runs left to right on the coordinate plane, parallel to the x-axis. It has no 'rise' or
change in y-value.
Interquartile Range
The difference, in value, between the bottom and top 25 percent of the sample or population.
Box Plot
A graphical rendering of the range and the first and third quartiles of a data set with the data set's
median in the center.
Control Group
In an experimental study, this group does not receive treatment or receives a placebo.
Venn Diagram
A type of chart that illustrates distinct sets, topics, or objects relate to one another. Uses circles to
represent events.
An intravenous drip is infused at a rate of 4.5 milliliters per minute. How many milliliters
are infused per hour?
A. .075mL
B. 2.7mL
C. 75mL
D. 270mL
D. 270mL
Base Number
The number multiplied by itself when paired with an exponent. For example, in 8 to the third
power (8^3), 8 would be the base number.
Trailing Zeros
Sequence of zeros after the last non-zero digit in a decimal number.
Equation
Two Mathematical expressions separated by the equals sign, =. The two expressions on either
side of the equals sign hold the same value as one another.
Bar Chart
A graph that displays data that is distributed over groups or categories.
Relative Frequency
A way to approximate a percentage by dividing the number of times an event occurred in an
experiment by the total number of trials.
Causal Relationship
A relationship between two variables that can be classified as cause-and-effect.
