Math Final Quantitative Skills
and Reasoning Questions and
Complete Solutions Graded A+
Quantitative Skills and Reasoning - Answer: the name of the course
Thinking Mathematically - Answer: the title of textbook
Inductive Reasoning - Answer: the process of arriving at a general conclusion based on
observations of specific examples
Types of Graphs - Answer: circle, line, bar
Counter example - Answer: A fact that causes us to revisit the conclusion. Also known as an
"exception to the rule"
Deductive Reasoning - Answer: The process of proving a specific conclusion from one or general
statements. These conclusions can be called Theorems that can be applied to examples
Four Step problem solving plan - Answer: Understand, Plan, Solve and Check
Line graphs are used to... - Answer: Visualize trends of measure over time
When math model is used beyond its limitations - Answer: model breakdown
Problem solving strategy - Answer: making a list or table
, Set - Answer: a collection of objects
Venn Diagram - Answer: a graphical or visual way to represent the relationship of sets and their
elements
The set of natural numbers - Answer: {1,2,3,4...}
Cardinality - Answer: a measure of the number of elements in a given set
Equal sets - Answer: two or more sets with exactly the same elements
Set A is the subset of Set B if... - Answer: for every element in A, that element is also in B
Method of computing the number os subsets - Answer: Compute 2 the power of the cardinality
of the set
Some Common Elements - Answer: Set A and Set B have at least one element in common thus
the circles overlap
Solving Survey Problems Steps - Answer: Decide on set labels and drawing set diagram, fill in
cardinality values, and then answering the questions
Benefits of the Study of Set Theory - Answer: Facilitates a person to organize, categorize and
compare quantities of information
Logic - Answer: The study of correct reasoning as apposed to incorrect or fallacious
Invalid - Answer: An argument that has a mistake in the reasoning also called a fallacy
