About This Quiz

In mathematics, a variable is a symbol with a value. It is regarded as a variable because it values can change. Mathematical expressions contain one or more variables. It is different from mathematical equations because the value of all variables is not equated. Are you sound in mathematical expressions? Let's take a quiz!

    What is the most common figure for algebraic expressions?  - ProProfs

    What is the most common figure for algebraic expressions? 

    • X

    • Y

    • Z 

    • T

    Correct Answer
    A. X
    Explanation
    The most common figure for algebraic expressions is X. In mathematics, X is often used as a variable to represent an unknown value or a placeholder for a number. It is commonly used in equations and formulas to denote the variable that needs to be solved for. X is a widely recognized symbol in algebra and is frequently used in mathematical notation.

    How many are the main types of variables? 

    • Two 

    • Four 

    • Five 

    • Nine 

    Correct Answer

    What is the equivalence of two lambda expressions?  - ProProfs

    What is the equivalence of two lambda expressions? 

    • 1

    • 100

    • O

    • Undecidable 

    Correct Answer
    A. Undecidable 
    Explanation
    The equivalence of two lambda expressions refers to determining whether two lambda expressions are equivalent in terms of their behavior and results. In this case, the answer "Undecidable" suggests that it is not possible to determine the equivalence of two lambda expressions. This could be due to various factors such as the complexity of the expressions, the lack of information provided, or the limitations of the computational system being used.

    Which of these can not be expressed using symbols?  - ProProfs

    Which of these can not be expressed using symbols? 

    • Variables 

    • Operations

    • Functions 

    • Constants 

    Correct Answer
    A. Constants 
    Explanation
    Constants cannot be expressed using symbols because they are fixed values that do not change. Symbols are used to represent variables, operations, and functions, which can have different values or meanings depending on the context. Constants, on the other hand, have a specific value that remains constant throughout the problem or equation.

    When was Lambda expressions introduced? 

    • 1977

    • 1938

    • 1973

    • 1964

    Which of these expressions is usually not algebraic?  - ProProfs

    Which of these expressions is usually not algebraic? 

    • Quadratic expression 

    • Quadratic trinomial 

    • Polynomials 

    • Logical expressions 

    Correct Answer
    A. Logical expressions 
    Explanation
    Logical expressions are usually not algebraic because they involve logical operators such as AND, OR, NOT, which are not typically used in algebraic equations. Algebraic expressions, on the other hand, involve variables, constants, and mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Quadratic expression and quadratic trinomial are both types of algebraic expressions, as they involve variables raised to the power of 2. Polynomials are also algebraic expressions, as they can involve variables raised to any power.

    Which of these concepts supports well-formed expressions?  - ProProfs

    Which of these concepts supports well-formed expressions? 

    • Lambda expression

    • Order expression 

    • Logical expression

    • Quotient expression 

    Correct Answer
    A. Lambda expression
    Explanation
    Lambda expressions are a concept in programming languages that support the creation of anonymous functions. These expressions allow for the creation of well-formed expressions by providing a concise syntax for defining functions. Lambda expressions are commonly used in functional programming languages and support the creation of higher-order functions, making them a suitable choice for supporting well-formed expressions.

    Which of these focuses on the implication of mathematical expressions?  - ProProfs

    Which of these focuses on the implication of mathematical expressions? 

    • Semantics 

    • Logic 

    • Probability 

    • Logarithm 

    Correct Answer
    A. Semantics 
    Explanation
    Semantics focuses on the meaning and interpretation of mathematical expressions. It deals with the relationship between symbols and their corresponding mathematical objects or concepts. By studying semantics, we can understand the implications and consequences of mathematical expressions, allowing us to reason and make deductions based on mathematical principles. Logic, probability, and logarithm are related to mathematics, but they do not specifically focus on the implication of mathematical expressions like semantics does.

    Which of these mathematicians introduced Lambda expressions?  - ProProfs

    Which of these mathematicians introduced Lambda expressions? 

    • Alonzo Church 

    • Venn Euler 

    • John Dalton 

    • Alfred Wells 

    Correct Answer
    A. Alonzo Church 
    Explanation
    Alonzo Church introduced Lambda expressions. Lambda expressions are a feature of functional programming languages that allow the creation of anonymous functions. They are used to write more concise and expressive code by defining functions inline without the need for a separate function declaration. Alonzo Church, an American mathematician and logician, developed the concept of Lambda calculus in the 1930s, which laid the foundation for Lambda expressions in programming languages.
