List the prime numbers less than 20
There are eight prime numbers less than 20: 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19
46
If we divide p by q, q is the ----- and p is the ------
If we divide p by q, q is the divisor and p is the dividend
47

53
Probability of A or B is
the probability of either minus the probability of them both
54
trick to find the number of factors of N
1) Find the prime factorization of N N = (2a)(3b)(5c)… 2) Collect the set of exponents of the prime factors: {a, b, c, …} 3) Add one to every member of this set: {a + 1, b + 1, c + 1, …} 4) Find the product of every number in this latter set. That product is the number of factors of N. This count includes 1 (the factor of every number) and N
55
arc length of a circle
2*pi*radius * (degree/360)
56
When can you square both sides of an inequality?
If you are guaranteed that both sides are positive, then you can square both sides and the inequality is still true. If there is any possibility that the two sides of the inequality have opposite signs, then you can't square both sides.
57
True or False: If one vertex of a triangle is at the center of a circle, and the other two vertices are on the circle, is the triangle always isosceles?
True. Two sides are radii, so they would have to be equal: the definition of isosceles. If the third side is also equal, then it's an equilateral triangle, which is a special case of isosceles.
58
If a triangle ABC has all three points on the circumference of a circle, and segment AB is the diameter, what do we know about the angle C?
it is equal to 90 degrees
59
When any smaller number is divided by a larger one, the quotient is _____ and the remainder is ___
0, the smaller number
60
What percent of a bell curve is between the mean and 1SD above? And 2SD above?
34, 13.5
61
Volume of a sphere
(4/3) pi r^3
62
How is the process of adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing both sides of an equation by the same number different between an inequality and a regular equation?
If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the direction of the inequality reverses
63
What numbers could x be if its absolute value is equal to -x?
Any number equal to or less than zero
64
What is the absolute value inequality equal to -3 < x < 11?
Since the middle of that region is 4, and the distance from the middle to the edges is 7, then the absolute value of x minus 4 is less than 7
65
True or False: If N is a multiple of p, then the LCM of N and p is N
True
66
When can you add two inequalities?
when the direction of the inequalities () is the same
67

positive integer
68
Is zero even, odd, or neither?
even

integers formed by multiplying some integer by any other integer
