Unit Test

Begin with the review questions, then continue through the current-unit questions.

  1. Previous unit review

    A cyclist travels 200 km in 5 hours at constant speed. Find the speed.

  2. Previous unit review

    Pack A has 3 markers for $12; Pack B has 9 markers for $40.5. Find each unit price and the better buy.

  3. Previous unit review

    Find 50% of 40.

  4. Previous unit review

    Find 40% of 160.

  5. Current unit

    A marker is 18 m above sea level. Write its signed elevation and explain what elevation 0 means.

  6. Current unit

    Find the opposite of -7. Show both values on a number line.

  7. Current unit

    Draw a horizontal or vertical number line. Plot and label -6, 0, and 6.

  8. Current unit

    Draw a horizontal or vertical number line. Plot and label -1/2, 0, and 3/2.

  9. Current unit

    Compare -1 ___ -1/2 using <, >, or =. Sketch a number line to justify.

  10. Current unit

    Compare -2/5 ___ -5/3 using <, >, or =. Sketch a number line to justify.

  11. Current unit

    Find |-4| and compare it with |2|.

  12. Current unit

    Find |-21| and compare it with |3|.

  13. Current unit

    Plot P(4, 5) on a coordinate plane and name its quadrant.

  14. Current unit

    Plot (-3, 7), reflect it across both axes, and give the reflected coordinates.

  15. Current unit

    Plot (3, -7) and (3, 7). Find their distance. Explain why adding magnitudes works or does not work for these points.

  16. Current unit

    Plot (-6, 3) and (3, 3). Find their distance. Explain why adding magnitudes works or does not work for these points.

  17. Current unit

    A marker is 16 m below sea level. Write its signed elevation and explain what elevation 0 means. Write the elevation of the point equally far on the opposite side of sea level.

  18. Current unit

    Find the opposite of -7/5 and the opposite of that result. Locate all values on a number line.

  19. Current unit

    Draw a horizontal or vertical number line. Plot and label -2/3, 0, and 4/3. Name the step size of your scale and explain the placement.

  20. Current unit

    Draw a horizontal or vertical number line. Plot and label -2, 0, and 7/3. Name the step size of your scale and explain the placement.

Answers and reasoning

Reveal the teacher answer key
  1. 40 km/h

    Speed = 200 ÷ 5 = 40; distance = speed × time.

  2. A $4/marker; B $4.5/marker; A is cheaper

    Divide each price by its marker count; compare 4 with 4.5.

  3. 20

    50/100 × 40 = 20.

  4. 64

    40/100 × 160 = 64.

  5. +18 m; 0 means at sea level

    Sea level is the reference. Below is negative and above is positive.

  6. 7

    -7 and 7 are each 7 units from 0 on opposite sides.

  7. -6 < 0 < 6; unit steps

    Negative -6 is left of or below 0; 6 is right of or above 0. Use equal intervals.

  8. -1/2 < 0 < 3/2; use steps of 1/4

    Negative -1/2 is left of or below 0; 3/2 is right of or above 0. Use equal intervals.

  9. <

    -1 < -1/2; greater numbers lie farther right.

  10. >

    -2/5 > -5/3; greater numbers lie farther right.

  11. 4; 4 > 2

    -4 is 4 units from 0; distance is nonnegative.

  12. 21; 21 > 3

    -21 is 21 units from 0; distance is nonnegative.

  13. Quadrant I

    Move 4 right, then 5 up.

  14. (3, -7)

    Reverse both signs: (3, -7).

  15. 14 units

    Only one coordinate changes. Opposite sides of 0: 7 + 7 = 14.

  16. 9 units

    Only one coordinate changes. Opposite sides of 0: 6 + 3 = 9.

  17. -16 m; 0 means at sea level; opposite +16 m

    Sea level is the reference. Below is negative and above is positive.

  18. 7/5; opposite again -7/5

    -7/5 and 7/5 are each 7/5 units from 0 on opposite sides.

  19. -2/3 < 0 < 4/3; use steps of 1/3

    Negative -2/3 is left of or below 0; 4/3 is right of or above 0. Use equal intervals.

  20. -2 < 0 < 7/3; use steps of 1/3

    Negative -2 is left of or below 0; 7/3 is right of or above 0. Use equal intervals.
