STATISTICS TEST BANK ALL MODULES
⫸ Continuous data Answer: Has values within a range, measured not
counted, does not have gaps between data points (data is connected lines
or curves).
⫸ Example of discrete data Answer: Days of the week
⫸ Expressions Answer: A group of symbols such as numbers and
operators that has mathematical validity
⫸ Commutative Answer: The order in which the numbers appear in the
sum can be reversed
⫸ Identity property Answer: Adding 0 to any number does not change
the original number
⫸ Additive inverse Answer: Values that are equally far from 0 on the
number line.
,⫸ Negative Answer: When multiplying a positive number by a negative
number the result is always
⫸ Positive Answer: Multiplying a negative number by a negative
number results in a positive
⫸ Factors Answer: Integers that evenly divide the initial integer
⫸ Prime number Answer: Positive integer with exactly two positive
factors consisting of 1 and itself
⫸ Composite number Answer: Has at least one positive factor other
than one and itself
⫸ Factorization Answer: Process of breaking up a composite number
into its prime factors
⫸ fundamental theorem of arithmetic Answer: Any integer greater than
one is either Prime or the product of Prime numbers

⫸ Radican Answer: Number under radical sign √16=4
, ⫸ Open Circle Answer: Represents less than or greatest than on the
number line
⫸ Perfect square Answer: Product of any integer with itself yields a
perfect square.
⫸ Whole numbers Answer: positive numbers with a whole value
⫸ Integers Answer: Numbers with no fractions or decimal value but can
be positive or negative
⫸ Rational numbers Answer: Numbers that can be expressed as a
fraction or decimal values that have that end or repeat forever. Includes
all integers since all integers can be expressed as fractions.
⫸ Real numbers Answer: Everything that can be included in a number
line including pi.
⫸ Fractions Answer: Express numbers which are part of a whole
⫸ Numerator Answer: Number written before the slash or above the
fraction bar
⫸ Proper fraction Answer: Numerator is less than denominator and the
value of the fraction is less than one
