There are two different type of SAT test. The first one, SAT Reasoning Test, is required by almost all universities in the US (unless the school accepts ACT only, but it's rare). SAT Reasoning Test includes three areas -- 1, Reading, 2, Maths, and 3, Writing. So, no, Maths is not considered a subject test here. SAT Reasoning test is US$45
The second type of SAT is called SAT Subject Test (formerly called SAT II). Just like the name indicates, SAT Subject test offers test on different subjects for students to test and show their skills. Not all colleges requires SAT Subject Test, but University of California admission makes it mandatory for all high school applicants. Fees varies depending on subjects
