Whats on the Test?
Major Standards: 70-80% of Test Points
1. Ratios and Proportional Relationships
(20-30% of Test Points)
Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems
7.RP.1: Unit rates with fractions
7.RP.2 (major): recognize and represent proportional relationships:
- Tables, Equations, Graphs
- Constant of proportionality (1, k)
y/x = k y=kx
7.RP.3 (major) Percent Problems (multistep)
2. The Number System
(15-25% of Test points)
Apply and extend previous understandings of operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers.
7.NS.1: add and subtract rational numbers
7.NS.2: multiple and divide rational numbers
7.NS.3 (major): word problems involving all four operations with rational numbers
(negatives, positives, fractions, decimals)
3. Expressions and Equations
(30-40% of Test points)
Use properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions
Solve real-life and mathematical problems use numerical and algebraic expressions and equations.
7.EE.1 (major): add and subtract expressions
combine like terms
distribute and factor expressions
7.EE.2: rewriting expressions
7.EE..3 (major):
Supporting Standards: 10-20% of Test Points
1. Statistics and Probability:
Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population
7.SP. 1: - identify valid samples of a population
- understand that random sampling will give representative samples and support valid inferences.
7.SP.2: Use data from samples to make inferences (predictions)
- Investigate chance processes and develop, use, and evaluate probability models.
7.SP.5: Understand that probability is between 0 and 1
- Express the chance of an event happening by observing frequencies
- Larger numbers = better chance
7.SP.6: Approximate probability of an event
- Predict frequency of something happening based on probability
7.SP.7: Probability models
-Compare probabilities
7.SP.8: Find probability of compound events
- Use organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and simulation.
Additional Standards: 5-10% of Test Points
1. Geometry
Draw, construct, and describe geometrical figures and describe the relationships between them.
Solve real-life and mathematical problems involving area.
7.G.1: scale drawings (find areas and lengths) ---> always convert measurements first!
7.G.4: circumference and area of a circle
- give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle.
2. More Statistics and Probability
Draw Informal comparative inferences about two populations
7.SP.3: compare two data distributions (double box plots, line plots, box and whiskers…)
7.SP.4 -- measures of center (median, mode, mean)
- measures of variability ( range, Mean Absolute Deviation)
- compare populations using these measures

7.EE..3 (major):
- solve equations with positives, negatives, fractions, and decimals
- use properties of operations (commutative, associative, distributive, inverse….)
- write equations and inequalities to solve problems
- solve problems that are in the form px + q = r and p(x+q) = r (ex 3x + 2 = 10)
- identify the sequence of operations and proporties used to solve and simplify problems
- write and solve inequalities px + q > r (example: 5x + 8 < 23)
- graph solution of inequality on a number line
